It's nice that aCompileIt!/Double-XX replacement is finally coming to LiveCode, maybe, but it is pretty expensive, at $499/year. The old timers may remember both of those products, from Heizer Software, allowed you to compile HyperCard stacks (and build XCMD's and XFCN's). We will see how smooth th

According to Kevin’s email: Would this script compiler work on all platforms? All platforms will benefit. Code will run faster and readable scripts will be removed whatever platform you are targeting. Rick > On Mar 3, 2022, at 9:33 AM, francois.chaplais via use-livecode > wrote: > > Dear all
