Andy:

LiveCode on Windows is now usable! No lag when the message box
and the Project Browser are is use.


Wow, I'm going to try it in a few days when I have a chance! About time 
too - a little less Winphobia and Windistance goes a looong way and 
helps keep in touch with a huge portion of our end users. Great news. :)

An older system offline could be useful for many things. People have 
used old computers even to get paralyzed people back in the game with 
speech. It could also run special projects, education or a kiosk. Be 
careful though.


A new system fully patched still could be risky online if people always 
trust the status quo and what's popular, without thinking it through.


Some things (like security patches) are popular for very good reasons. 
But other things not so much. The powers that be can only protect you to 
an extent - and sometimes we need protection from the powers that be. To 
survive and thrive, we need independent thinking too.

Or, if you don’t want to create such parameters to identify your senders, you 
could use the executionContexts:

send "selectionChanged item 2 of line -1 of the executionContexts" to 
 in 

Or, if you want to reduce clutter in your many senders, you could just:

send "selectionChanged the executionContexts" to  in
