Oh, fruit-flavoured socks . . . If many developers do not trust Microsoft, who can change their term anytime, and no one knows what they will do . . . One could wonder about the same sort of thing about other software manufacturers; even those who keep changing their commercial licensing

Yes, you are correct. By the way, even though revGoUrl was deprecated, it should now work on mobile since the Common Library is now available there. Thanks, Brian On Jan 21, 2019, 7:11 PM -0600, Terry Judd via use-livecode , wrote: > So (answering my own question) - it seems that I misread the
