LiveCode Forums

To bring this back to the OP's original question, the LiveCode engine is written in C++. And thus the github label. But the LiveCode programming environment that is built on top of the C++ engine is a scripting language on a level with ruby, python, etc. So if the question is something like "can we ...

Ah, thanks. I think I have to wait another four days or so for it to show up on youtube.

Heh. Nothing like a good port scan to wake you up.

BSidesSF is virtual this year, so we're revisiting some talks from earlier years. Here's one I missed last year that deals with various aspects of visualizing data: why to avoid pie charts, how and when to use log scales, some rules of thumb, a fascinating real-life example of effects of simple visu...

Hold that thought for a bit. We're on the verge of getting a new version out the door, and it might be more appropriate timing in a few days.

Hah! xyzzy was the only thing I could think of as well.

...and apparently the episodes get posted to youtube some three or four days later. Been waiting for the return of your team.

Debugging system stacks is a bit tricky. Normally breakpoints are disallowed in system stacks. You can enable this through a global property. I regularly work on system stacks in situ without getting myself into too much trouble (usually. fingers crossed. famous last words) global gRevDevelopment; p...

The reason I suggested putting the stacks into the user plugins folder is that the IDE loads them on launch so you don't have to do any extra fiddling around with 'start using' or remembering where the library stacks are.

OK. I have never found the need to assign stack files for anything I'm working with exclusively in the IDE. Only when I'm ready to package up something for a standalone application. Here's what I do for a library stack that I want available generically in the IDE (and this applies to script-only sta...

Interesting concepts/questions here.

First of all, are you talking about a standalone application here or are you dealing with stacks running in the framework of the IDE?

Dang. I've been pretty good about writing the date on checks so far.

There's possibly an Open Source Summit coming up at the end of September in Dublin.

Do you make fishcakes?
