Re: LiveCode Newbie questions

I just tried to "make an application" from my program that I've been working on and using for the last seven or eight years. I'm on Mac OS. I was surprised to find out that the application it created with the defaults in place was a windows exe program. _

Hi Alejandro, Thank you for trying it out and I am glad you liked it. Yes, I would be very happy to collaborate on this, but let's hold off until I get "VeggieSquares" to v.1.00. When the time comes, I can send you all the related text{?} files for you to translate. Be advised the existing

Hi Mark, Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I can't wait. I have an app out there right now. Someone migrated my BASIC code to LiveCode and compiled it to get it up before a deadline. The app seems to be well received, so I don't want to mess up the reception with the nag screens the Person

And besides, we have a lot of dumb answers as well. If we're going to have fisticuffs each time that happened we'd never get any work done. Bob On Jan 13, 2011, at 2:50 PM, J. Landman Gay wrote: > On 1/13/11 4:05 PM, Calvin Waterbury wrote: >> Hi Jeff, >> >> Thanks for the boost. I really do

Re: LiveCode Newbie questions

The hardest thing is to untrain your mind about the complexities you are used to. It's easy to overthink things coming from another high level language. You are probably used to having to write everything from scratch, as though a plane manufacturer had to design and manufacture all the parts an

Hi Richard, Ye Sir! Your tone and attitude, as well as the content reflect exactly that of my mentor. He's been at it about two years. He goes by "Doc." At least that was his moniker when I became acquainted with him. He's a great guy! Thanks for the encouragement. Fair winds, Calvin

Calvin, Don't let the vent thread scare you. Some here have been using LC for quite a while, and usually it's the little things that make you want to vent. The big things Rev has been doing a great job with! LC apps do compile to an EXE. It's not 100% self-encompassing, though, meaning it may nee
