I am surprised that anyone would expect a lot of coding help to rise out of the LC community. Sure there are a few who have experience in the lower level languages, but my sole reason in choosing LC was for the English-like syntax. I don't know, nor do I want to learn C or Objective C or anything else. I started with HC, and it ends with LC for me.
Very well put indeed. I didn't start with HC: I gave up computer programming for good because I really couldn't be bothered with Pascal, FORTRAN and so on. It was HC that got me going again. I took side trips to Toolbook and so on, but when I found LiveCode I felt I had 'come home', and I am, effectively, a one-trick pony nowadays. LiveCode used to claim (c.f. RR 1.1.1 handbook) that the whole of LiveCode was constructed in LiveCode . . . therefore, surely, we can also do further construction?
