Martin, I believe that is an inaccurate judgement. Whilst I was never a MetaCard user, I believe that the ScriptLimits existed in that product too. Runrev must have had some licensing arrangement with Scott Raney - effectively, they were re-selling the engine, but wrapped in a different IDE. Then they bought the engine.

See the scriptlimits. This is Revolution's contribution to the
contemporary practice of limiting software functionality in order to
protect commercial interests. Basically it stops users doing what
Runtime did - using the product to create a competing product. Sorry.

Hi Bernard,

My memory is admittedly not the most trustworthy so I'm happy to be corrected if I misremember, but my recollection is that the 10 line scriptlimits in Metacard and early versions of Revolution only applied in the free version. Runtime of course dropped the free version but also applied the script limits to standalones made with the paid-for version.
