here i am again with a couple of questions :
A : is it possible to quit Chuck from Chuck? I need to quit chuck when a
certain osc message arrives, and i was wondering if there is a command
to do this.

How about using the comand (forgot it's name) to call something from the OS and use it to call "chuck --kill"?

B: can i store references to functions in variables? similar to the python:
def myfunc():
dowhatever
myvar = myfunc
myvar()

I don't think so, since they aren't objects they can't be asigned (to my knowledge). As a work around you could write a function that would have the new name and just pass on the variables to the older one? I don't realy understand the purpose from your example though.

Hope that was of some help,
Kas.
