You can create a plugin that opens invisibly when you start up
LiveCode, and the plugin can contain a button with a script full of
whatever functions and commands you want to have available. Then you
can put this into the plugin stack script:
on openstack
insert script of btn "myLibrary" into back
end openstack
And that will make all the handlers in the button script library
available to you everywhere you work in LiveCode, automatically, since
the library script will be activated whenever you start LC.
That's how I do it too, but I didn't want to get too deep into things yet.
One thing to mention though is that these custom solutions won't
transfer to stacks that are distributed to others unless the backscript
is included as part of the distribution. I know a little about what
Larry's working on, so in this case he'd be better off with a
backscript. For only private use during development though, the plugin
method is awfully handy.
