Here’s what I’m thinking: http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=25563 <http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=25563> If I get the go ahead there’s going to be bucket loads trivial changes and stuff like identifying which token is a synonym and which is the official token. Things like rect and rectangle are curly because just about nobody uses rectangle yet obviously rect is the synonym and has been used in the properties property for as long as it has existed...
