Thanks for the input. I thought I had done everything until I finally realised that the file dialog that comes up had a button in the lower left corner that said: “Show options”. =-o So then I could select “LiveCode Script” as format. And tada. Well, LiveCode crashed… …but still. Can now work from that!
