"nothing is stopping you from developing with LC versions prior to 9"
indeed: I'm refactoring, recoding, rejigging and generally have a "fun
time" moving my Devawriter Pro
from LiveCode 4.5 (which is seriously long in the tooth) to 8.1.1
and, as long as I can get the thing to work on Windows 10 and Mac OS
10.12 I will be
entirely happy.
The move from "set the unicodeText" to a universal "set the text" is
Fantastic, and will keep me
very happy indeed for a very long time to come.
I cannot express how much I like not having to mess around finding
surrogate pairs for
wierd characters up in the high planes of Unicode . . . just "Wow!"

Honestly though, nothing is stopping you from developing with LC versions prior
to 9. If you use script only stacks for your code libraries, it should be
fairly easy to conditionally branch for any new features you might want to make
available which older versions do not support. And if you say that this is too
much trouble and you shouldn't be expected to go through all that, well then
you have just made RunRev's point for them. :-)

It does, cheers, cheers!
Having just invested 190 Euros in a 2006 Intel iMac (max OS 10.7) I am extremely
happy about this.
