If it would be integrated with the Rev debugger, then I'd want to join in

Do you guys know if there is a way to tell a standalone window to set
itself to the bottom, in terms of the Z-order of all open windows (not
just open rev stacks)?

Dear Revolutionaries
I really like Python and I was just curious to see how
the rev compiled bytecode compared to Python's in a
very simple math benchmark. I am definitely NOT making
any kind of statement here about Rev. or Python (or
any other programming language for that matter). If we

I have been developing software for testing in schools - built as a windows

contains lots script, lots of cards, each with different

Hi Klaus,
sorry to mislead you, have tried the software on a screen set to 800 x 600

thanks,

Thanks Sara,
no, this is not a file path problem. The files are selected by the
standard file dialog.
And by 'template' I mean that one stack is strictly a 'template' for
printing with no controls and fields that are stripped down with no
scrollbars, focus or border so it will print correctly.
