Re: Release: LiveCode 8.0.0 DP 1

[Mark Laffoon]

All of the "old" plugins (chart maker, scrapbook, etc.) are no longer
available on the Livecode store... Is this feature discontinued?

Re: [OT] For Mark Laffoon: Scripter's Scrapbook

[Mark Laffoon]

Hugh,

Thanks for trying to find me through another method!

What I was attempting (poorly perhaps) to refer to was including a link to
a pre-existing ssbk entry when using the API to set a new entries data.
 Example:

*ssBkSetEntryData* "MyEntry","Pinky Swears","Link to:" &&
*ssBkGetEntryLink*"13 Deadly Sins","HTML"


Or somesuch like that.

Thanks!

Mark

Offline lessons.runrev.com

[Mark Laffoon]

Recently, I had the opportunity to grab some 3rd party tools in the RunRev
store, one of which was "The Scripter's
Scrapbook"
(SSBK).

Wow, that is one neat tool.

So as I'm going about filling it up with all the goodies I had laying
around in text files & stickies, I remembered a couple of LiveCode
"Lessons" that I wanted to include. My process began something like this:

Find "Lesson"
Copy text
Save pictures
Save Files

Create SSBK entry
Paste text
Insert images
Attach Files

Pull hair out!

Then, as I'm starting up SSBK the other evening, lo and behold I see:
"Build extensions and addons as API plugins or IAC scripts"

Is this what I think it is?  Hell YEAH!

Sure enough, there is a whole API that is superbly documented, right there
waiting for me to play with.

So finally here we are at my dilemma:

I have a half written a plugin that takes a given
lessons.runrev.com"Lesson" and creates a complete entry in my SSBK
automagically.  Is this ok
to do?  I found a somewhat related post in the list archives from earlier
this year:

Possibly because the lessons are created with the (marvelous) ScreenSteps
program, a commercial product made with LiveCode by our own Trevor DeVore.
I'm not sure, but there may be proprietary formats in it, or licensing
restrictions.

Since the output does show up in a browser though, I'd think you could go
to a web page and at least grab the html.

Although thats about all there was.  So even though I can do this, should
I? It certainly helps me to have it all in my newfound friend, SSBK.

Thanks in advance for any advice offered.

Re: Help with Regex (was Re: Switch, Case and wild-cards?)

[Mark Laffoon]

I've always found RegExhibit from

Also, for reference material,  http://www.regular-expressions.info/ has
been of great help.

Just my 2 cents.

Great!  In fact, those tips are what I was after.  I should probably just
get the ebook and stop leaching your bandwidth.

Just an FYI in case the owner/maintainer of RunRevPlanet uses the list, the

Re: [ANN] Free "Kochi Mini SVN" a very simple "Version Control System” for LiveCode

[Mark Laffoon]

I know this post is a latecomer to the topic, but having just experienced
the same problem as Skip, I thought it relevant.  I managed to install the
plugin by starting up LiveCode with the (Windows) "Run as Administrator"
option.
