Wait, so LC8 will have typed variables? We will have to declare every variable
with its type before we use it? Or will this be optional?

And for now, widget code is actually slower than regular livecode -- it's

May have unearthed a reason for Javascript being so fast. If I run the same
routine as ActionScript (the syntax is identical to Javascript for this
example), the routine takes around 380 milliseconds. Still doing a good as

Wow! That
