Cool - thanks for sticking with it. I am new as well, and I had a lot of issues setting up the Android/iOS building environment the first time, and I do find the language a bit odd (I have done some programming in other languages before) in that it is quite verbose. That said, the efficiency is great, and I like spending more time on the solution design than I would otherwise be able to with another language.

LiveCode appears verbose per-line, but sparse in number of lines needed to accomplish a given task.

And gets even sparser once you reach the point of using the available abbreviations, such as [fld = field], [btn = button], [rect = rectangle] and so on and so forth.

But even written out long form (as I always use), I can't think of too many cases where you would have to overly exert yourself from typing to accomplish something.

Having spent 3 weeks pissing around with Python last summer . . .

. . . which gave me a bad case of Deja Vu for PASCAL . . .

I can only characterise LiveCode as short and sweet, and to the point.
