"""'echo' -- an AppleEvent handler which handles all events the same. It replies to each event by echoing the parameter back to the client. This is a good way to find out how the Script Editor formats AppleEvents, especially to figure out all the different forms an object specifier can have (without having to rely on Apple's implementation).
