Most logic and mathematical code should work if it uses HC-SC

Rev/Livecode has so many little binary 'goodies' it would be
counterproductive to do an automatic translation. A human has to be involved
if you really want this thing to
Personally, and all of you will think I'm crazy, I treat every app I create as
if I were coding it in HC with a few added features such as color and large
screens. Occasionally I run into a problem; but that is quite rare. That's the
KISS approach to LC. (smile) Do I waste a lot of time?
I like to think of properties as read only variables, which can only be altered
by setting them to some other variable or constant. Properties have two
things that make them attractive: The first is that they are global in the
sense that you can get any custom property of any object from any

altho it is much easier to create one code for several platforms in LC, then

just think about saving stuff on desktops. you need to use a two- (or
