Yes, well, 'Amthony' . . . Obviously 'Amthony' had more things to worry about, such as 'spiling'. 8) I just felt that 'idiots' was silly, and incorrect. Personally it seems to me that regarding xTalk languages as "toys' is largely either prejudice or based on not actually taking the time necessary t...

people are idiots, a treasure to be had for the taking that they simply do not see 1. That is plain insulting and totally misanthropic, and not very helpful. I drive a Toshiba Auris, I use MacOS and Xubuntu Linux as my operating systems of choice: does the fact that I do not use Windows, and do not...

Oh, and as this is you first postage, welcome to these forums.

How long have you been working with LiveCode?

OK, OK: probably I am being a bit stupid as usual, so please could you explain HOW you open the second stack from the first stack? - Screenshot 2024-03-26 at 14.39.46.png - As THAT does something very odd indeed: - Screenshot 2024-03-26 at 14.42.12.png - I have NO idea what that stack "revCo..." is....
