Have a look at the environment function in the dictionary... this function will
be your friend in the circumstances in which you find yourself... for example
on openCard
if environment() = "mobile" then
do it this way
end if
if environment() = "development" then
do it another way
end if
end openCard
'less cross-platform than one might hope'... I don't think so. How many other
development environments can you think of that tackle Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS
and Android not too mention the server platform...
And I have to disagree with you on the point of clarity as it was clear to
me... using a function like environment() I see as a staple ingredient in being
able to develop croos-platform apps quickly and easily, and .. err... it's been
around since version 1.0
