Hello List,

I found a banner on a web-site about revolution and checked it out ...

I'm not familiar with HyperCard (well, I wrote some stacks 10 years 
ago...) and I can't put rev on a place (in my head). I got the 
feeling, that rev does much more than the HyperCard that I knew

- Is it right: all information is stored in 'stacks' - something like 
records in a Database? (as HyperCard)

- Where is the limit of the free-Version?

- What's the main difference to 'RealBasic'/'VisualBasic'?

- is there a typical use for rev


I tested rev with a very simple script (yes, yes, 'hello world') and 
I found the compiled application much 'crispier' than the same test 
with RealBasic (after doubbleclicking, the rev-App' comes up faster 
than the RealBasic equivalent)

I'm doing most of my work with/in Filemaker and I'm looking for a 
scripting/programming Language to perform task that couldn't be done 
inside FMP (kind of installers, read/write to serial ports, 
file-manipulations. etc.)


sorry to ask :-(

m.
