Re: Integrating Live Code with AI for Enhanced Functionality

You could make an IDE plugin with two fields, one for the prompt to a GPT API and the other for the response, with a Copy button to put it in your script editor.

Later you could learn enough about the script editor to put it there directly.

Have you used HTTP APIs for GPT?

I can't imagine how you could get that impression. It's been less than a day since he posted his question.

Re: Another reason to stick with LiveCode?

Nothing is 100% safe. I think you nailed it right there. What we're seeing is a difference between professional and lay reporting, similar to how medical journals and blogs reporting on their articles sometimes differ (Nature's "Myocarditis among Covid-vaccinated patients" being among the most famo...

Re: Another reason to stick with LiveCode?

Since it seems I need to clarify my post: LiveCode language is memory safe because you don't deal with memory allocation/deallocation through the language. Perhaps something to celebrate. This is the point of my post. The misunderstanding here seems to stem from LiveCode's decision to have "LiveCod...

Only one of those variables is declared as global. What happens if you comment the global declaration?

Re: creat game" flappy birds"

I've tried reaching out to Cyril on LinkedIn, but he's not very active there so I don't expect a response.

If anyone here can reach him, I'd be happy to provide hosting for his LC collection at livecodejournal.com

Re: Weird can't redraw chart problem - solved

I don't see a redraw command in the dictionary. I do see three commands that are either inactive or apply only to specific controls like the (deprecated) Browser. There's a "redraw" item in the Glossary portion of the Dictionary window. The Dictionary defaults to showing both language elements and ...

Mine is:
~/Library/Preferences/RunRev/livecode7.rev
Why does show "LiveCode7" of all things?
I believe that's a format specifier, noting the last time the Prefs data stored there underwent significant revision.

Re: Close the stack and don't ask me to save changes...

Something is happening that I don't understand: if you quit , the stack is automatically saved (which doesn't suit me) whereas in the LiveCode-Error-Lookup.rev stack, the modifications are not saved. I tried looking at the scripts for LiveCode-Error-Lookup.rev but couldn't find anything conclusive....

Re: Problems with Drawer Menu

What is very interesting is the claim: Just to add that drawer stacks on OS X are not supported since we moved to Cocoa (in LiveCode 6.7.0). In other words, the "drawer" command will work only with LiveCode versions < 6.7.0 which does not explain why LiveCode cannot do this on Xubuntu 23.10 despite...

Re: I am far too bold

Jacque. But this just popped up all by itself. Why would that style (only bold, all others stuck) set for one second, and then clear? And why would trashing the prefs file make it all better? And why then, when it grudgingly got back to normal, did it change ALL of the fields on ALL of the cards on...

Re: LiveCode and HyperStudio

It seems likely we could actually emulate this in LiveCode (implemented as a test-off palette), but the question is: should we? I wouldn't bother. It would be challenging enough on Windows and Linux, and the global menu bar in macOS would require some clever Builder hooks to get it working. And wit...
