How to see scripts in Rev file?
Hello,
I downloaded a sample Stack which says the scripts are open for examination. A .rev file was downloaded; how do I see the scripts in the file?
Regards.

Re: How to see scripts in Rev file?
Hi, welcome to the forum.
When you open a LiveCode stack, you have access to all its properties, one of which is its script. You will find in the menubar options ("Object") to open both the card and stack scripts. Further, if you choose the pointer tool and select a control, you will be able to edit its script as well.
But while you are doing all that, may I ask how far along you are in learning LiveCode?

I am interested eventually to create light weight user interfaces that use RESTful services as the backend.

Shows number of lines of code in each item. Can click the number to see the script.

You're in good company then. I do this all the time.I am interested eventually to create light weight user interfaces that use RESTful services as the backend.
Authentication with backend services can be a pain, but otherwise RESTful interfaces are quite easy to craft in LiveCode.
