User's language

I am not sure how localizations are supposed to work in Live Code. I understand including the ".lproj" indicates which languages you intend to support, but how do I determine the language that the user currently has his computer set for? A search of the dictionary seems to indicate that t

Okay, this is a beast, and in no way good or generalized. It doesn't use the previous function, instead just going through line by line and flagging all the issues it sees in one pass. It should: 1. Flag any new ID that doesn't have just two items on the line. 2. Following that line, flag if the n

Cool. Note that in the sample data, the first two lines of the EF block are missing entirely, the ones that should have the empty values. Not sure how to call your function for that but I'm hoping you do. :) On 6/30/13 8:33 PM, Geoff Canyon wrote: This is just one piece, but here's a function

Consider MySQL - even licensed under GPL, a great many proprietary systems rely on it every day. The difference is that they don't bundle MySQL with their software, which would require negotiating a commercial MySQL distribution license. See the GPL clause on dynamic linking -- Richard

I think Augmented Reality may have a variety of implementations. So it probably depends on what you want to do. FWIW: Our printer for Hinduism Today magazine, Quad Graphics, has just done a major sales pitch (to me) to buy their augmented reality "product" which is based on a mobile app cal
