Mikey-

I finally took a look at the blog. That's getting to be quite a collection. Thanks for putting that together.


Good start, yes. Good work Mikey. A couple of them don't feel quite right though. I'm not sure whether they should be left alone because they are common things that might trip up newcomers, or if they should be corrected because they aren't really "problems". For example, this one:


debugger affects the execution of some scripts

Try the following script in a field:

on tabKey
>  answer the selectedChunk
> end tabKey

Now click in the field and type a character. Notice the answer that results.

Now edit the script, and set a debug checkpoint either on the on
tabKey or answer... lines. Exit the script, click in the field, and
type a character. Surprise! The answer dialog is empty.

The script editor is just another stack, so of course when you change stacks the original selection is removed. So this isn't really something that's "wrong" with Revolution, it is just standard behavior. On the other hand, it is probably something that newcomers wouldn't expect so maybe it should stay in there. Use different wording, maybe.


Also, the problem with the selection point in newly opened script
editors isn't something I can reproduce, so I wonder if it is really related to how the editor is opened. I thought this was an old bug that got fixed.


The blog is a good idea though Mikey, keep going.
