CAsba, Klaus.

The "dates" in the two fields are of different formats. Of course they cannot be conceptually mixed in the simplistic way CAsba tried.

@Mike ...a lot I don't know about. (I couldn't find Metadata even when searching for that feature, because I didn't know what it was called I have been there. Like any dictionary, one has to know how to spell a word before one can find it. With LC, you are not even sure what word you are looking for...

Mike. Is Bernd's suggestion simply something you missed, and, what do you know, LC had it all the time? I am not trying to dissuade you from migrating away from LC, but I have often discovered that, what do you know, there was a native solution to a task that I either had to write for myself, or liv...

I have always touted building a simple app, an address book, say, or some sort of calculator. Such things may never actually be useful to you; it does not matter what task you set for yourself. It is the act of construction that will be profoundly rewarding, and hopefully, fun and challenging. And l...

Now that is a well educated bot. Excellent writing skills, composition and grammar.

Zero value.

...the promises of updated IDE for v10 and compiled scripts never will materialise.

This sounds ominous. Is it really true?

Nothing seems to happen anywhere after pressing "New Game". What do I do (can I do) next? Something says "Flip from pile 13".

How?

Just as I thought. LC is the best. I know this conversation really cannot go anywhere, but what does LC not do as well as any of the others mentioned? Speed? Does it lack certain native capabilities? What task simply is beyond it? Controlling a manned spaceship? Running the New York Stock Exchange? ...

Nope.

When I select "New Game", what might(should) be my next action? A click? Drag?

I do not see how to even start playing. After hitting "New Game", nothing reacts.

I know one language. Does anyone have an example of what some other program does much better than LC?

Apart, that is, from pricing.

Hi.

I started with HC in 1987. I knew about SuperCard. I am intrigued now by the broad differences that must exist between LC and other current RAD programs, such as XOJO.

To me, LC, ahem, seems perfect. But can you say, briefly, what you like most about LOGO?
