A Director 7+ sprite naming utility.

This provides you with two Lingo-style methods, spriteName() and getName(), which permit you to reference sprites in your score by name rather than channel number.

Thus instead of, for instance, doing

the visible of sprite 3 = FALSE

you can do

the visible of spriteName("backButton") = FALSE
