I'm using libUrlDownloadToFile to download some mp3s. As you might know
libUrlDownloadToFile periodically sends the message "urlProgress" to the
originating object so you can monitor the progress of downloads.
It's working well, but I'm confused about when libUrlDownloadToFile stops

There's a printkeys function in the datagrid library: send "printkeys" to group
"Datagrid1", same format as I think you referred to for the SQLYoga printkeys.
There is a caveat that it only prints the first line of each key but that might
be OK for you.

Dear LiveCoders,
Last Saturday, 19 March, we had another nice on-line gathering of LiveCode
fans. This time we had 2 interesting presentations, both of which you can watch

Thanks, Stephen, I'm still very much a LiveCode beginner and need to learn more
about the ins and outs of text manipulation over the next few weeks, so I'd
like to see that example stack.
Meanwhile, as I have to deliver this demonstrator quickly (and as things like

together. Not quite a native version of CKEditor but I don't need much for this

You could write a quick html text creator from scratch almost faster that it
would take me to find a demo stack online somewhere. We've all rolled a few
of our own tools while coding, it's so easy.
Having said that, if you contact me off-list I will forward a stack that

There is the "text" menu. It doesn't have everything, though.

Hi Peter.
Well I don't have a complete listing because I am finding them out as I go. My
current project gets the SQL to create a table from the sqlite_master table,
then massages it to create the same table in mySQL. MySQL uses SELECT CREATE
TABLE to get this information.
One gotcha is that
If this is a one-shot project, you could use an old-fashioned external
serial-connected modem and a Keyspan USB-serial adaptor.

Bob,
I'm about to make the leap from sqlite to mySQL so I'm very interested in the
differences you mentioned. I think I've seen some of them in posts on the list
here but any chance you could summarise them? I guess I am expecting some
functional improvements in mySQL over sqlite since sqlite
Hypercard began to slow down tremendously once you got past 1000 cards. People

Hello Gerry,

"If no audio clip is playing, the sound function returns done"
If you don't have any other sounds playing you could set up a "send in time"
loop to check if the sound was done which would be more efficient than using
idle.
For example:
