If you use the clipboarddata to alter your scripts, you get undo to work again.

Here's my original, which does mess up "undo", but it's a start. I use
Command-Shift- to trigger the actions. Cmd-Shift-space, for
example, picks up the text under the mouse and puts it into the current
selection. I use that almost exclusively instead of copy/paste to enter
variable names witho

Using an Indy license, I'm getting a lot of "previous request not
completed" errors when trying to POST to a server. In the past,
connectivity would eventually resume when a new request was sent. With
TSNet, no more requests will ever complete no matter how long you wait

Yes, it deselects the text AFTER it gets the selectedChunk: char x to z of
field y, so you could reselect that same text.

Thanks for this, Peter, I’m going to give it a try…

Yes, the selected text is deselected when clicking a button on the Mac. Too bad

Hi Alex
It is always good to have them in the bug db so when know what people are
running into. I know there was a big push during the LC 8 DP phase to try and
get performance closer to LC 6.
Actually after looking into this I wouldn't mind seeing your benchmark script
as I can’t really see ho
I just discovered that part of my simple benchmark code I was doing for
my photo apps was incorrect.
I was being caught out (I think) by the implementation of
'copy-on-write' in LC8.
My simple benchmark did (in essence)
put URL("binfile:/path/to/verylargefile.jpg") into tData1
put tData1
Hi Al,
no, nothing as adventurous or ambitious as that :-)
'interesting' in this context is really more about where / whether the
photo belongs than about the photo content itself.
I'll be deciding the fate of the photos myself - and trying to find ways
of doing it that make the reward (fewe
Thank you all very much for the detailed and patient information.
Yes, there was a big misunderstanding about RTL/LTR by me, because
language-script directions can be deliberately mixed ('bidirectional',
as I read in an LC 7 introductory blog).

Perhaps there's a misunderstanding here...
If when you refer to rtl to mean rtl languages (such as Arabic) then there is
nothing to do - rtl languages are stored in memory in logical order - ie the
same way round as ltr languages. It is just the display which is changed.
If you mean doing chunk

probably it's about time that you give at RTL-lesson/blog/tutorial?
Would be very appreciated.

Trapping the commankeydown message is the easiest way to automate quoting.
Rather than altering the script field behavior, I'd recommend using a front
script. Just make sure you pass the keys you're not using!

Do as monty suggested and hilite the chunk you want to quote and click the
button. Though it just popped into my head.. If you're on a mac, and click
a button while text is selected.. does it de-select the chunk? I seem to
remember something like this in the past, but am not at my mac right now s
Hermann,
Symmetric chunks of the type you describe have issues when the delimiting
rules are more complex - for example when the item delimiter is 'ab', the
number of items in 'ab' is not an invariant of its read order, unless you
reverse the characters in the delimiter too. When the item delimiter
