downloaded two weeks ago really, seriously, does not cut it.

While it's unusual and sometimes confusing to rely on the buildNumber in 
addition to the version number, as long as it's the way it is I could 
live with it if the page on which these engines were downloaded from 
noted the buildNumber in addition to the version number and creation date.


That is, once such a page exists. ;)

Totally and utterly agree! How much effort would it be to just change 
the minor version number or at least publish the build number?


All the Best

I have to agree.  Slipstreaming is a pain in the neck for everyone, and 
I don't really understand why Rev thinks it is a good idea, either.

Jim, check your build number:

in the messagebox, type:
put buildnumber()

I think this was quickly fixed by build 108.
Download a recent version.




Is this a known change in 2.6?

The scrip below functioned as expected in Rev 2.5.  When the user 
click Cancel in response to the ask command the it variable 
was set to empty. Not so in 2.6.


In 2.6 the script behaves differently. When the user clicks 
Cancel, there is a error response. The ask command does not 
return empty to the it variable--I'm not sure what it is. It 
shows empty but charToNum  return the zero character.

Klaus,

Good idea. It takes me 1.5 hours to download the whole works. And 
then there is the job of updating the plug-ins.


Peripheral benefit to the new build: Spotlight is starting to index 
my Rev scripts--for both RR 2.5 and RR 2.6. I didn't test versions 
anything before 2.5.


But only those stacks that have been newly saved. Odd, since 
Spotlight has clearly looks through my old MS Word files. (Maybe it 
will get around to the old RR files eventually--just waiting for 
enough idle time.)


Jim
