Thank you!
I will definitely read it.
Right now I am reading files in
5kb sections to EOF and I am
reading 350 average size jpg’s
in around 4 seconds. I will be
doing some processing on the
files but that will be done after
everything else is as fast as I
can get it.

LiveCode does offer a few different ways to read and write files, which
vary according by speed and features. And of course there are many ways

Hi Richard,
Thanks for the info.
The reason why is because I
am reading a lot of files and
was wondering if it would be
faster to write a external to read
them.
I have no complaints and I think
it reads them very fast already
but I was doing what I could to
learn if it could be speeded up.

Thanks, Bob.
Sounds like it would be easier and better
to write a new external to do the job.
Your info will save me some time.

Livecode supports xcmds still so far as I know. The trouble is, those xcmds
were compiled for OS 9, and we are way past that. There is no way I know to
convert a compiled OS 9 xcmd to an OX S xcmd. You would need the source, and
then you would have to refactor it in a current compiler.

The Hyper Talk was pretty simple. I had a few
different file I/O externals that would allow me
to sector read the disk. I don’t think they will
import or I could use them. They really do not
need an external window so if you know how I
can import them that would be really great.

Technically I'd think yes, practically I'd think there are any factors that
would cause it to fail, obviously the size of the data being the most
obvious. Reading from one external HD and writing the file to another
external HD would be your best bet.
I assume your talking about some LC custom sol
Is it possible to read a whole drive
as a single file?

I have an old (three years running now) revision control system that is
simply a client side mini-finder that appends old fashioned revision
