Re: Online Programming Environment
Exactly: the key word in my posting was "hook". Obviously an online version of LiveCode would have to be a cut-down version; but it should be sufficient to generate interest in the whole shebang. I have had conversations with many people who "cannot be a*sed" to download LiveCode and install it 'just' to try it out (which, in my opinion, doesn't say very much for them); so, by having an easily accessible online version to "dangle under their noses", that lassitude/passivity may be circumvented.

I've found it useful to go through the Bugzilla request queue a couple times a year and see what folks are asking for. Some really great ideas there. Many require engine engineering. Taking engine programmers off the engine to do work any scripter can do slows down development of the engine we all rely on. And if the scriptable task isn't even something we'd use, just how useful would it be to others? So many good and powerful things to do in the world, but if we really thing about it many are things we can do ourselves. When we realize that, we're able to have what we want much sooner. That is, if it's something we really want. :) -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ambassa...@fourthworld.comhttp://www.FourthWorld.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
