## Current state of version control for stacks

I spent the first few months after joining LiveCode attempting to
implement a scheme which would allow *any* LiveCode app -- no matter how
complicated -- to be stored in a format that could be reliably and
safely stored in a version control system and losslessly converted to
and from "traditional" LiveCode stacks.

I did this some years ago, and it's still built into the glx2 script editor because I've been too lazy to pull it out. But it can suffer once again from the lack of uuid object ids. When Monte and I talked about this a couple of years ago (wow - it's been that long?) I thought the lcVCS idea sounded good if it would integrate well with the IDE. And since it does, version control really should just be there out of the box, and not as a third-party add-on.

It is probably also worth mentioning that the Business Application
Framework is written entirely in LiveCode.

<sigh> so no real oop then.
