Block number: [3]    [view source] [What is this?]
What this block does:
This block creates a clone of the sprite that runs it. Unlike the standard clone blocks in Panther, this one creates a clone that does not dissapear once the stop button is pressed. If you want the clone to appear at the mouse pointer and let you place it, just don't put the NoAttach part into the CYOB window. note, does not work in presentation mode.

What this block does:

Whoah! You changed it entirely!

I have a useless block, operators, but some people might want it. It is: 'report [string]' block!

blockspec:

('report %s' #r #report: 'hello')

report: t1
^ t1

And you have it!
p.s. I left this somewhere else first 
p.p.s. typed in wrong!!!

Another Control block!
Wow, that section should be pretty popular with these blocks.
The [go to scratch website...] block is below. Enjoy it!

blockspec:
('go to scratch website...' #- #link)

link
 Cursor wait showWhile: [ScratchPlugin primOpenURL: 'http://scratch.mit.edu/']

Added your scratch website block, converted it into a Panther block also, and then made a variation that lets you look at a chosen username's projects page! Thank you very much for the submissions!

Credit to rubiks_cube_guy for the <I receive> block.

blockspec:

('I receive %e' #b #seesBroadcast:)

seesBroadcast: t1 
    | t2 |
    t2 _ ScratchEvent allInstances.
    t2
        reverseDo:     
            [:t3 | 
            t3 name = t1 ifTrue: [^ true].
            nil].
    ^ false

Once again, credit to rubiks_cube_guy!!!
Am I helpful for this topic? (Some have been stolen from others, but I gave credit)
