Folks, there have been a lot of impressive words said about the use of
LiveCode by NASA.
You need to be VERY sure about which part of the satellite/SCADA systems you
are referencing.
I see NOWHERE that NASA is using this code to control the in-built rocket
and navigation control systems of the s
I don't think the world needs less "bitchers", I don't think that is possible.
What the world needs is far fewer people who listen to them. :-)

Thank you. Yes, you're making my point quite well, but I can't tell whether that
was the intention or whether you're trying to argue against it.
For sheer functionality and showcasing the power of LiveCode, it's hard to beat
the Landsat application. But I'd argue that displaying screensh

Critcising the aesthetics of programmes produced by RAD tools has often
been a way in which "professional programmers" have rubbished the useful
(yet unpolished) tools that literally ran many businesses. The same thing

The key phrase here is (paraphrased): "We load 3000 to 4000 commands into

Sure - and that goes for all of us. But the OP said

language!"

The NASA people didn't create the webpage. Quarrel with the page design if you
will, using LC to run a major satellite data system is impressive. That's the
point. It's worth letting people know about it.

It's the sort of thing that gives LiveCode a bad name...
