Re: LC Luvv Da Buggs - Greatest Hits - "Player"

[Richard Gaskin via use-livecode]

I wish I had problems like that.  For the last several years LC won't 
play audio or video files at all, leaving us with this remake of what 
has become a golden oldie:

Re: Writing a Book on LiveCode need your help

[William Prothero via use-livecode]

Patrick:
I also would find a book that covered server resident apps. I know HTML5 is in 
progress (I think) so regular updating may need to fit into your plans, as 
well. Hermann has produced some wonderful examples that combine Javascript and 
LC. Anyway, you will have to think about whether HTML5 is advanced enough to 
justify a book that will hopefully get out of date pretty quickly.

Best,
Bill

Re: Sorting strangeness

[Paul Dupuis via use-livecode]

Mark,

Thank you, as always, for your incredible depth of knowledge of the engine!

Bug filed: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22378 with 
sample stack and your comments.


If I can impose on you, I have one more question related to this topic:

IF sort lines of  ascending text was working correctly for lines of 
mixed ASCII and Unicode, for someone sorting lines of text that can be 
Native text, Unicode text (both RTL and LTR), or mixtures of both, is it 
better to use SORT ... TEXT or SORT ... INTERNATIONAL? I don't know 
enough about what the "international" (using the system locale 
settings)  and Unicode may mean in relation to one another?


Thank you again,

Paul Dupuis

probably should be documented) or an aberrant behavior (a BUG and

Its definitely a bug - sorting a field with that content works 
correctly, but sorting a variable doesn't.


After staring at the string for a while it occurred to me that the 
line which is sorting incorrectly is all ASCII - "Norwegian Norsk" - 
indeed the following causes the string to sort correctly again:


  sort  ascending text by (each & 
(numToCodepoint(0xFFEF)))


When sort is done, it first splits the input string into separate 
strings - one for each line. In this case the "Norwegian Norsk" line 
becomes a native string, whereas all the others are unicode. The above 
forces all lines on which the string is sorted to be forced to unicode 
so the bug doesn't manifest.


Poking around some more, this also seems to work correctly:

  set the caseSensitive to true
  sort  ascending text

So there appears to be a difference between the sort keys being 
generated for unicode and native strings - at least when caseSensitive 
is false.


The field case works because the field coerces all content to unicode 
(as the text APIs on all platforms take UTF-16 these days), and I 
believe there is an optimization in place if you sort a field by lines 
- it doesn't have to cut anything up, it just uses the backing string 
from each paragraph.


I have a feeling I know precisely where the problem lies, so if you 
file a bug (for once) we should be able to fix it quite rapidly.


Warmest Regards,

Mark.

P.S. Another way to get the correct result is to do this (which is 
essentially what the engine does internally if caseSensitive is true):

  set the caseSensitive to true
  sort  ascending text by toLower(each)

Good idea!!

Reading a book cover to cover is way underrated.  I've always done it that
way, read the LC manual cover to cover.  Learning Rust, so I ordered a book
to read in bed.  (Although its missing)...lol)

Working with Rest APIs would be a good section
Optimizing for graphics intensive stuff like games and other applications
(layer modes, tips & tricks)

I look forward to new LC students having your book as a resource.

Re: Sorting strangeness

[Dar Scott Consulting via use-livecode]

I love puzzles.

The dictionary says the "text" sort is a codePoint, which I understand as raw. 
I did a codePoint dump on the original text and got this (decimal):

67 104 105 110 101 115 101 32 20013 25991 10

71 101 111 114 103 105 97 110 32 4325 4304 4320 4311 4323 4314 4312 10

65 114 97 98 105 99 32 1593 1585 1576 1609 10

71 114 101 101 107 32 917 955 955 951 957 953 954 940 10

82 117 115 115 105 97 110 32 1088 1091 1089 1089 1082 1080 1081 10

78 111 114 119 101 103 105 97 110 32 78 111 114 115 107 


You can see the first codePoint is in the ASCII subset and should sort ASCII 
based on the dictionary description. I even dumped each line separately and got 
consistent results.

I tried removing all lines except the two interesting ones and then removing 
the Russian from the Russian line. That sorted as expected. 

I think the dictionary description is wrong. 

My locale is US English.

Yes there are some, in the lessons, on samples.on.rev.com and there is a

which you can hardly call a guide as it only explains a bit how to install.

Re: Writing a Book on LiveCode need your help

[Eller, Roger via use-livecode]

It would be very niche, but a book that details working with Raspberry Pi and 
robotics with LiveCode would be awesome.

Hi everyone,

Looking for suggestions for a new book. All of us have read or viewed
tutorials to help you learn LiveCode. I am looking for what you think was
missed or could be better for my book.

Thanks,

Re: Sorting strangeness

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

This does not answer the why, but as far as case specific, you can sort lines 
of  by word 1 of each ascending text

Sorting strangeness

[Paul Dupuis via use-livecode]

Okay, here is a Monday morning puzzler for folks:

Take the following text:

Chinese 中文
Georgian ქართული
Arabic عربى
Greek Ελληνικά
Russian русский
Norwegian Norsk

"sort lines of  ascending international" produces exactly 
what is expected:


Arabic عربى
Chinese 中文
Georgian ქართული
Greek Ελληνικά
Norwegian Norsk
Russian русский

However, "sort lines of  ascending text" produces:

Arabic عربى
Chinese 中文
Georgian ქართული
Greek Ελληνικά
Russian русский
Norwegian Norsk

Now, WHY should Russian appear BEFORE Norwegian with R before N in 
treating it as a straight ASCII sort ("text")???


Try it yourself in LC9.0.5rc1. Is this a BUG? or should unpredictable 
results be expected if using a default (as "text" is the default) sort 
of text in LC9.0.5?

Re: Test post: Its awfully quiet around here...

[Richmond via use-livecode]

As the LiveCode Forums allow one to include zipped files and images
it might be that more users are migrating in that direction.

I'd expect nothing less from you Richmond :D

Needless to say (I'd have thought, anyway...) - this was my attempt at 
a slightly more jocular way of ensuring the listserv had not decided 
to fall over again.


It is very rare for there not to be a message posted by someone, 
somewhere, in any 48 hour period, regardless of day of the week... 
Given the outages due to the server move and subsequent issues last 
month I thought it reasonable to check :)


Warmest Regards,

Re: Test post: Its awfully quiet around here...

[hh via use-livecode]

@Mark

This is the silence(*) that is the same as is with LC (without
LCFM) since one year.

What about *some* progress at least with

• an up-to-date libbrowser/browser widget
  that *works* on latest OS of Mac/Win/linux(ubuntu)?
• full keyboard and mouse events support in HTML standalones?
• simple keyboard support in LCB (keypress)?

Even rather easy (for you) requests as saving/opening a stack
to/from a variable are in the pending jobs (if not in trash)...

(*)Except the admirable work of Panos as 'caretaker'.

Not trying to be snide or anything, but I've been too busy posting bugs 
to the LC quality center and trying to get our 2 commercial applications 
onto LC905 to post much unless it is related to bugs.
