It demonstrates a substantial subset of the features that the 1.0
As far as I was aware all you need to do is sign your apps, if you publish an
app to the Mac App Store it already has to be signed.
To do this you need the $ 99/year Apple Developer Program, and then you can
use a few simple terminal commands to sign an app. It should not affect

Hello,
if I want to read from a CD with a known label foo I just check if foo
is in the drives to check if the CD is inserted.
Then I add /Volumes/ hard coded before foo, so that I get the full path

What I would like to know is, if this name convention /Volumes/. is
mandatory
Hi Tiemo,
Yes, /volumes is mandatory on all Macs. You can even use put shell(ls
/volumes) to get all drives. /volumes/drivename is the right way to address
a drive on Mac.

Yeah. The d subscript needs to be calculated based on i. (Or the loop changed

Whoops. Still not right. The line number has to go up twice as fast as the
object number.
This can be done with a separate loop variable or doing some math on the repeat

It might be easiest to count graphic objects and then calculate the lines as

Basic HTML5 is OK in most modern browsers (even Internet Explorer).

Off the top of my head, I would say that the time to retool is when all modern

Hi William
You can use rreHardcopy or mergDoc for AirPrint. mergDoc allows printing via
the document preview which will also allow your users to send to other apps
etc. if you just want print then rreHardcopy is the way to go.

Hi Tiemo,
Umlauts break as soon as custom properties are involved. Custom properties are
stored as binary, thus the automatic translation to a different charset do not
happen. This causes problems with Umlauts in the standalone settings, as
liveCode uses cProps to store those. It could explain

Not only is it not an integer, even if you strip the modulus, 57 is the wrong
