Hi All, Surely we have discussed this topic before, but the HyperCard thread brings me memories from 1987, when I started dabbling with Macs. Back then, I provided translations from manuals for my group of coworkers who were learning to use the Mac.
Just last week, I was showing to a school friend (who works as an English Teacher) some stacks created in LiveCode and he told me that he wished to be able to create similar stacks for his classes, but he quickly dismissed the idea, arging that the time involved to learn it would be too much for him. Then, I proceed to show him the scripts that drive the stacks and he was really surprised to learn that he could actually read and understand a computer language. Obviously, he have never heard before about HyperCard or LiveCode so I left him the stack "MetaTalk Programmer" to run with Ken Ray's StackRunner. http://www.canelasoftware.com/mc/metacard24/mtp.mc How difficult would be for LiveCode to sell a specially simplified student version of this program in English Teaching Academies around the world? I am sure that exposing english learners to this platform would be really beneficial for them and LiveCode.
