[FX.php List] Passing a script parameter with PerformFMScript

[Bob Patin]

Glad to hear that my New Zealand... I mean British... I mean  
Australian... friend is fully lucid as usual... :)

Well, apparently one can't set a global in an FMNew, so I resorted to  
non-globals, which I'll then grab & use in the script.

Thought I'd post it here for future reference...

Carry on!
