Spell Checker

Hi folks, FYI I've published a Github repo with a spell checker. The code is code I've been developing for a spell checker replacement in apps I develop for macOS and Windows. It uses NSSpellChecker on macOS and Hunspell on Windows. If some kind soul wants to compile a Hunspell 1.6.2 .so library

Corona Virus app idea

Folks: I had an idea for a Corona Virus app that Livecode is perfect for, and which could be coded up fairly quickly. I don’t have the time for doing it, but offer this idea just in case someone on the list wants a project for this. The idea is to solve the problem that is now being created as

Re: Livecode HTML5 and SQL

I have to correct myself. The script works when i call an url that is on the same server as the html5 app is called from. And more important parameters can also be used. And as Sean already posted about a HTML5 library, it´s possible to use an HTML5 app with an api layer using LC Server or PHP

Re: Livecode HTML5 and SQL

If "post... to url" and "put URL..." would work, then it should work with HTLM5. But currently only load URL is supported. But to be true, i am not sure about "load URL.." I´ve used load URL only for downloading files in the past. I am not sure if the command can also be used with

Re: Quick IDE question

Hi Graham Glad it worked. Getting the decorations and dragability back is just a matter of getting the stack rect within the rect of the screen. LiveCode IDE parts sometimes get a mind of their own and set out a wanderin’ — who knows why. Setting their loc to the screenloc will put them

Re: Quick IDE question

Stone the crows, it worked!! Even the decorations came back, and the ability to drag the window - neither of which are obviously related to the rect or height of the stack, as far as I can see. Thanks so much Martin. I wonder how just the Script Editor got so out of whack - but it’s just a

Livecloud is indeed from Canela Software - but there's no obvious link from their own website for it. Go straight to livecloud.io to get the info about it. It does require Indy or above LC license Alex. On 29/04/2020 15:06, Clarence Martin via use-livecode wrote: You may want to explore

Re: Livecode HTML5 and SQL

That’s good to know, Matthias. So it seems that what you’d have to do is, still do the MySQL I/O in LC Server scripts, but also dynamically construct the HTML output in your LC server scripts, so that the calling HTML5 app could make sense of it. Am I interpreting the situation correctly,

Re: Livecode HTML5 and SQL

I was also thinking about using LC Server or PHP scripts, but if i understand it correctly then "put URL" or "POST.. to URL" aren't currently supported in the LC HTML5 engine. Only "load URL" is supported and only for http / https. Matthias - Matthias Rebbe Life Is Too Short For Boring Code

Re: Livecode HTML5 and SQL

Colin, I haven’t tried it myself, but I would think you’d have to write an API layer using LiveCode Server scripting. All of the MySQL reads and writes would take place in your .lc scripts on LC Server. Then it would be simple, RESTful http calls from your HTML5 app. Of course, this all

Can you explicitly set the rect of the SE? I do this all the time because I have it located on a large vertically oriented monitor adjacent to my main screen, and the loc needs to be refreshed now and then depending on other stuff I use them for. Craig -Original Message- From: Graham

Quick IDE question

Since yesterday, running either LC 9.5.1 or 9.6.0 dp4 on a Mac, every time I open the Script Editor window, it overfills my screen, so I can’t see the bottom of the window. There are no decorations, so I can’t resize or minimise the window; and dragging the window by the title bar doesn’t work

Re: Wildcard? replaceText, offset?

Not sure what 'previous post' referred to. Reg ex "[0-9]+" (or equivalently "\d+") would match one or more integers. Provided this is the first/only instance of the pattern, I would have thought that regex does provide the neatest solution, e.g.: put "(" & iNewNumber ")" into
