But this month LC broke new ground:

For the first time since I've been tracking TIOBE, LC IS NOW IN THE UPPER 50, ranked as the 49th most popular language:

Great news!, I think... note that the TIOBE rating is based on lines of code written, not popularity.

I'm not fond of metrics based on lines of code written. Since LiveCode packs so much power into a single statement vs the number of line of code it takes to do the same job in most other languages, I'd think that we're actually much higher in the standings than a simple quantitative statistic would indicate.

What did we knock out of place to get there? I see we're only 0.001% above Crystal, whatever that is.
