One of Rev's great characteristics is its portability. A Rev standalone
doesn't need a setup. If you create an app in Windows, you can easily
load up the same project in Macintosh, create a new standalone, and
provided no adjustments to the handling of the file system are needed,
the app will run just as well on Mac as it does on Windows. Great!
But, to use a phrase I know Dan loves, there is a fly in the ointment.
The Windows file system is different to the Macintosh file system is
different to the Linux file system is different to the ..... So if your
app makes heavy use of the file system, to run it anywhere, you either
have to make it detect and adjust to the specific operating system it is
running on, or you have to produce different versions of the app for use
on different operating systems. Damn!
Please correct me if I am wrong.
The differences between operating systems extends beyond the vendors'
choice to avoid adopting a universal file system. Transcript's platform
function lets you determine where it's running at any given time before
attempting something unique to a given OS.
Was there a specific issue in that which we might be able to provide a
solution for?
