There are a bunch of collections out there -- Scripter's Scrapbook, "sample scripts" in the Rev search engine, Richard Gaskin's RevNet plugin, etc. The problem as I see it with starting up yet another online repository for snippets is that these resources are already scattered in a number of places. I think that the best idea would be to contact everyone with existing collections of scripts to get permission to include them in a central site. Now that would be useful -- one place to go, one place to post! I'd suggest a simple online database of scripts with tags, browsable and searchable in a browser, with a transparent API so that a Rev (whoops! LiveCode!) stack can be distributed to access it from a plugin within LiveCode.

Andy,

You might want to check out scripters scrapebook. Although I don't think it has been updated in a few years, it might give you some direction. The online aspect / shared repository is very interesting to me.

Hi David,

Apart from LiveCode I'm a PHP/MySql jockey and I was thinking of keeping it
simple, something like below:

http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/file/n2550163/layout.jpg

This could be:

1. All PHP/MySql   or
2. A LiveCode desktop offering connecting to the database or both.

I prefer 1. as it's available from everywhere.
