is not, ultimately, a good solution to limitations of RunRev as a software producer should be able to produce a single package that can be compiled to run on any target platform.
The problem about externals (whether 'externals' as understood in the xTalk universe, or external applications leveraged by a stack) is that they tend to be platform specific (font embedding comes to mind - Mac and Win, but no Web or Linux). Apple and Microsoft have shown a tendency to "pinch" ideas that others have produced as external add-ons to Macintosh and Windows and roll them into the next OS release. While this may be morally reprehensible one can see the reasoning behind it. Obviously the price is that the OS s get bigger and bigger and eat more and more RAM; hence the downsizing that is going on with Mac 10.6 and Windows 7 _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
