Are we taking suggestions in this thread? If so:
1) The parser should, when colorizing and capitalizing control structures,
include the IF keyword (THEN, ELSE and END are included)
2) Code collapse/hiding with disclosure triangles, and construct lines
would be great.

As I've followed this thread I've thought what an absolutely marvellous
concept; the ability to Undo, not just multiple times, but even past
previous saves! And not just script changes, but entire Object property
states. But what about an even better feature, the ability to Undo past

Hi Mark,
Look, for example, the contents of an element
of the Undo Array. The Undo Array contains
a xml description of all controls placed in
a single card:
The Unique Key for each control is the AltID
of the control, that is set at the moment of
its creation. So, always there is only one contr

Hi Alejandro,
In theory, yes that could be done.
Are you wanting to compare two arrays that are stored somehwre in two stack
files, custom properties perhaps? Or are the arrays in script variables?
If the latter, I couldn't do that within the bounds of lcStackDiff but I
might be able to pull out

Could you extend this script to produce

Good idea Alex. The scripts are written out to plain text files to do the
comparison so the mechanism for checking any type of plain text file is
already in place.
Unfortunately, I've never used revServer so I'm not familiar with where the
.lc and .livecode files are kept. Are they kept in specif
In this case, it was a revServer script (i.e. simple text file), so
lcStackDiff wasn't directly applicable, but the display of differences
in a script in lcStackDiff looks really helpful; you could maybe
consider extending lcStackDiff to cover .lc and .livecode text files as
well as scripts wit
Can't kelp putting in a plug for my lcStackDiff plugin. It will show you
the differences between two versions of a stack file, including exactly
which lines were changed in scripts.

I can immediately think of a use case for it. In fact, I experienced it
about 10 minutes before seeing this email.
In Coda2, editing a revServer file. Save it, upload ("publish") it, test
it - disaster. I've messed up something badly, not obviously anything to
do with wha I intended to change.
Never mind an IDE that prevents the creation of dodgy code - right now I'd be
delighted to get a fix for Mountain Lion so that it doesn't crash before I even
get my development environment back up and running.
Life for me has suddenly reverted to the instability of 20th century Windows.

Allowing undos past the last save is a huge advantage, as frequent saving is
often used to mitigate the risk of instability, rather than create a hard
'version'.
Cmd-S (or Ctrl-S) is your friend when developing or working with flaky apps or
IDEs.
However, consider the constant saving in Google

There's a wiki at:

A stupid question, not having used GLX since LiveCode was Rev Studio/Enterprise

How do I install it? There appear to be no instructions in the download at all,

No no problem, it's just that it's fairly typical to only be able to undo back
to the last save. I can see myself in a fit of undo's after making some
horrible coding error that made everything go wrong, hitting undo lots of
times. I guess I will have to avoid that. :-)
