Sockets are pretty easy to implement. There is a good Livecode lesson on how to do so. I wrote a client server system that can be used for virtually any kind of application. My particular need was to send and receive SQL queries and data without having to go through the fuss of setting up a web

Robert. "I have epsiTalk under Livecode.” Whaaat?? How much do you want for it? I would love to be able to talk to other running LC machines with a skillset that I already have. When I first picked up LC, I immediately tested “send to program” (a command in LC, as it ought to be, not a

Hi Craig, Klaus, Alex, Monte, Curry yes, that is me. Glad to hear that epsiTalk continues to be so useful for you. I have epsiTalk under Livecode. I say very little as the more I say the more distractions there are. During the Hypercard days I used xcmds. In the end HC was discontinued and I

Curry. Surely you are right. I just remember when HC was on the ropes, and wish that the LC Forum was so full of posts that I never have to do my actual job. I can just kibitz there all day long. It would mean that the world finally gets what LC offers. Craig > On Dec 16, 2021, at 11:16 AM,

Curry. "A few regulars - but many others who work/lurk! :)" I see that. Robert Eppich, back in the ’90’s, way before sockets, sold a product called “Epsitalk”. This was HC based, and essentially used the now deprecated “send message to program”. This was listed as a keyword, not a command, in

Is there a reason you are trying to close it? This is the socket port the remote debugger is listening on and there is a loop ensuring its existence. Cheers Monte > On 16 Dec 2021, at 6:26 am, RobEppich via use-livecode > wrote: > > Downloaded and run Livecode 9.6.5, type “put the
