I'm looking forward to seeing the messageDigest function get updated, hopefully it will have some clear documentation to help users figure out the correct syntax to generate say a SHA3 hash or other hash types.

Understandable Richard, I've updated the report title to reflect that.

Added the feature request onto the QCC, if anyone has any additional IDE only features they would like to see tested for addition to the standalone engine, feel free to drop a comment on the QCC post.

It's been a while since I've used the QCC, or LiveCode in fact, but I could make a feature request there and link it here if you would like?

So part of my Hydra app is the ability to emulate the use of the Message Box in a standalone environment like a terminal or shell of sorts and after some testing, I've found the functionality doesn't exist in the Standalone engine. Is this deliberate or just an omission? I'm running on 7.1.4 Stable....

So I was noseying through the LiveCode website and noticed some of the plans for 8.0 and I thus I have a couple of questions I was hoping could be answered regarding the new release: 1) In the website it states that 8.0 will automatically native-themed objects for your stack, will this mean that a p...

If I might interject and I apologise if this has already been mentioned earlier in the thread, but perhaps the changes you suggest such as those to setProp/getProp and the Result, should be postponed until a time when the language will get overhauled as was planned on the roadmap back in 2013. From ...

That's what I figured would be the case, I'll take a gander at perusing the front scripts at some point today and see if they are trapping MouseDown or MouseUp. The only extra plugin I have loaded is one I made that has been kicking on since 5.5 and has never introduced any lag, it makes use of Mous...

Hi Richard, Nope, it is on Windows 8.1 and it is nothing but the vanilla scripts that the IDE loads, I haven't tried it as a standalone so maybes I should do that, I just thought the engines would be unified in functionality such as those. EDIT: Upon further inspection, it seems to only be in the ID...

Hi Mark, I was wondering if you could shed some light here as I wonder whether an issue I'm having may be connected to the arrays performance in some way: I am working on my new project called Hydra, it is intended to be a console like PowerShell and Bash for Windows, Mac and Linux and with it, it h...

I'm not sure if anyone but a handful of us enjoys such arcana, but since I do I'll be adding a new section to the revision to RevNet I'm working on, which will include info on the undocumented elements I've collected (all the way down to the long-since-deprecated-but-delightfully-mysteriously-named...

Well looking at the source code for LiveCode has just opened up some major PTSD, I'm getting the shakes all over again. I think with the engine being open source, it may be cool for the developers to possibly document the likes of _Internal and revMessageBoxRedirect even if they come with a warning ...

Hi. I see you take the time to "TitleText" each word in your scripts. Do you find that more readable? (Do You Find That More Readable?) Just wondering... Craig Newman Erm...I don't know how it came to be exactly and now that I think about it, I don't seem to notice a difference between the lower ca...

Hello Richard, good to hear from you again dude :) I've been trying for the past hour or so to reimplement the code of the Message Box in a seperate stack including dependent functions so that I could use the debugger to step through the code and see if there was a method that I was just glossing ov...

So, I am making a shell application which is modelled after the Message Box and I feel like this should be really easy but after combing the Message Box script to see how it does it, I am still baffled as to how the Message Box catches the results of some syntax say Put revLoadedStacks() and then di...
