Atom Editor Help

2020-05-14 Thread Peter Reid via use-livecode
Hi, I’ve noticed that several of the LiveCode staff use the Atom text editor. Until now I’ve used BBEdit on the Mac and Notepad++ on the PC. I’m thinking of switching to Atom but need to be sure it can everything I need. For example, I have a typical piece of pre-process manipulation of text

Thanks Mark and Monte for the info. Had already stopped using the width/height specs and for photos from the library we had been getting EXIF info and still do in many cases (I think - more testing needed!), but as we can't do anything about what the OS gives us, I'll just slightly change the

Part of the question was; Can someone tell me how to obtain the pointer to g_external_name and g_external_table? How LiveCode knows it when it loads a DLL with my external? Is it possible to obtain the mentioned variables dinamically after DLL loads? I do not think you can get any pointers in

Thanks Randy, that’s really helpful. I am tempted to say I have now spent more time trying to get my Apple submission in shape than I did designing and coding my app in the first place - not really true when I consider the debugging problems I’ve had, but it was still a significant chunk. I

Again not quite OT - freeware licence agreement?

I’ve built an iPhone app with LC which I intend to distribute without charge. Obviously I have to ban the user from reverse engineering, on-selling at a profit etc. This must be quite a common requirement, but my attempts to search for such a licence have proved rather confusing. Has anyone

Once more, this time with the link. Hi all, I came across a question on Stack Overflow from a sight-impaired user who is trying to figure out how to write and test a LiveCode external. I am pretty ignorant about externals in general, so I don’t think I can help in this case. But if anyone
