begin()

First defined in: FKiSS1
The begin event is called exactly once immediately after the artform is displayed on the screen for the first time. This event occurs after the initialize event but before any version events.
Use this event for any actions which should begin when the user is first shown the artform such as starting basic alarm timers.
There can only be one begin event.

Example:

;@ begin()
;@   timer(5, 100)                 ; After the art is shown, start timer 5 at 100 milliseconds,
;@   notify("Welcome to my doll!") ; and present a welcome message to the user.
