Rev’s libraries are not debuggable in that sense. If I recall, any stack name that begins with “rev” is considered a Livecode Library (which can be useful for people building their own libraries). You can still however, use the new assert statement to build logging, or just simply use an answe

Thanks very much for the suggestions of other tools and the script that would help me write my own. But before giving up completely on the basic table, I'm trying to understand how it works (and, in the process, more about how LiveCode works). Inspecting "the frontscripts", I discovered th
