Hi from Beautiful Brittany,
With LiveCode, new stacks are created with the
.livecode suffix, and this screws up several of my
utility programs which create paths which assume
a .rev suffix.
Of course, when I save a new stack, I can always
replace the livecode suffix with .rev, and this
seems to cause no problems. But then I have to
remember each time I create a new stack to make
that modification.
Question 1 : Do "livecode" suffixed stacks differ
from ".rev" suffixed stacks ?
Question 2 : Can I automatically have the .rev
suffix used when creating a livecode stack ?
(Can't find anything in "Preferences" !)
Question 3 : Why was that change made in the suffix ?
Funny that; I use an antiquated Mac program called Appleworks
for 95% of my word-processing needs; its documents carry the
.cwk suffix
because it started out as Clarisworks.
Of course one of the 'advantages' of changing a file suffix is that it
makes things awkward for users of eariler versions so they are under
pressure to upgrade . . . :)
I see that when saving stacks, we have the possibility
of creating a "legacy stack".
What difference does this make to the stack ?
Having a new product name is all very jolly, and
certainly affects very few Rev users, but for me
it's a pain.

P.S. If the name "LiveCode" is so important, how
come that we don't have a "livecode.com" ?
(I see it already exists, but belongs to "DOTSTER INC")
