-- -- I'm still looking for the friendliest programming or non-programming environment for multimedia development. There does not exist a non-programmer's solution, so here I am.
Recent exploration has revealed that Director no longer is pursuing a verbose programming solution, (Lingo), but has switched entirely over to javascript. Can someone please tell me how the black hole that is javascript came to be so influential in our galaxy? I know it was written by aliens, but how did they get so much universal power? So, as far as a verbose, English-like solution, there isn't anything else other than Revolution that I would even consider trying to tackle. But my application goals are entirely in the realm of multimedia production. I don't see many multimedia or game oriented programs being written in Transcript, but that could just be due to lack of interest among the Revolution community. I've casually investigated Malte's arcade engine, but that is not exactly everything I would need to emulate some of Director's "built-in" functionality. I know that Revolution doesn't supply these kinds of templates, but, as regards overall functionality and prowess in multimedia, can someone with experience of both environments comment on similarities, differences and strengths of both development platforms? Also, Director supports, probably the largest set of graphic and video formats; how does Revolution compare in this area?
