Re: Blocking COPY ???
copy is a reserved word in Livecode... use something like r_copy for a handler name and it will work but unlike Forth, you can't do that On Sun, Apr 28, 2013 at 11:09 AM, Richmond richmondmathew...@gmail.comwrote: I have a fantasy (???) and would like to implement something like this in either sa stack or car script: on copy don't end copy or something like this: on copy set the clipboardData to No Luck Chum end copy this would be a way to block all the multiple ways of copying text end-users have in a Demo. but of course as soon as I write a script with on copy the thing throws a wobbly.

Re: Blocking COPY ?
There are many ways to allow full functionality of a demo. One way is to show a pesky timer counting down from 5 minutes, then covering the app with a giant Buy now! button. The user must quit to get another 5 minutes of use, or go ahead and buy it. ~Roger On Apr 1, 2013 2:19 AM, Richmond richmondmathew...@gmail.com wrote: On 01/04/13 06:15, Mark Talluto wrote: On Mar 31, 2013, at 1:07 PM, Richmond richmondmathew...@gmail.com wrote: I really am getting tired of continually commenting out 25 copy commands in 25 objects for Demo versions of my stuff, and wonder if there is not a way to block the copy command globally with a single stack script rather like this: Out of curiosity, have you considered allowing your demo to work fully?

Here are some facts: * A demo is a better than a pirated copy because you still have control. * You can decide how long you want your demo to last. The real questions are: Does the software fill a need? Is it worth $50? Can someone live without your software once they have tasted it?
