I need to make my own MD5 password generator to use with htpasswd password encryption. MD5Digests doesn't seem to cut it. php has a function called crypt( $password = crypt($clearTextPassword, base64_encode($clearTextPassword)); seems like this should be simple in livecode. What's the encryption

If LiveCode is to be a serious option for multimedia work, it has to have solid audio support. (It's not *multi*media if it's just for the eyes.) And LiveCode needs native support for compressed sound (mp3). For those of us who provide a try-before-you-buy product, a restart is one more (big) step
