Re: Version control – which system?

You can export that script as a behavior, and then use any VCS that you like. This is only applicable at newer versions of v. 9, and earlier versions of 9 have some issues with this. The totally manual way is bring up the properties pane for the stack choose the advanced tab tap the behavior button ...

Re: Importing data from Google Sheets (problem with returns in cells) [wrong attachment, now updated]

looking at this more closely, i'd say export as csv and parse. when i do that, b2 gets quotes around it, which tells you it needs special handling.

Re: Importing data from Google Sheets (problem with returns in cells) [wrong attachment, now updated]

Re: BBC article about HyperCard

It's PR and Marketing. What wouldn't you say? Occasionally said individuals converse with news agencies, especially if they've placed an ad with said agency at any time in the last 20 years, because the news agency will be spamming the company regularly. - or - you could go the Wendy's Twitter feed ...
