It comes from a very different mind set than LiveCode, and provides

of
issues that arise during development are 100% different. The goals of
either...you get the idea.
To help people who may considering both products, would you care to spill
some more ink on HOW they are different? Thank you for your time,
Sri.
I think, Sri, you may be expecting a bit much of Lynn, who is a busy man
[been there, made that mistake; the one about the name].
Surely, the thing to do is to download the free version of Xojo and the
free version of
Livecode and run them side by side for a bit. I have downloaded both,
and am planning
["all the best laid plans of mice and men . . "] to set aside 3-4 hours
to play around with Xojo
and see how it compares with Livecode.
To be honest, I have little or no intention of swapping from Livecode to
Xojo, having invested
about 24 hours a week for the last 14 years fooling around with
Livecode: but I do have a
feeling a spot of messing around with Xojo might reinform me of
Livecode's strengths, its
weaknesses, and suggest a few ideas for Livecode's improvement.
