I hope no one here minds a shameless plug and perhaps helping me out a little... Over the past few months I've been working to bring together an idea I've had for quite some time: persistent, live, online chat rooms that are quick and easy to make, use, and fun. The result is Sqwerly Chat. It is

I decided to put together a little fun stack for everyone here to play with. It's something I do in my spare time (yeah, what's that?!) for fun: genetic algorithms. I've done all sorts for random experiments, but today on Reddit I saw that someone had made a decent tutorial of them, and I though

Well, TCP works great, you just have to define your protocol and go. This wouldn't be too difficult to implement. That said, a native method of letting LC apps inter-communicate w/o having to program it [much] would be slick. Taking some ideas from AppleScript: ## app "A": start script server

Geoff (btw, Jeff here ;-)), Okay, I think I completely understand where the disconnect lies - and it's with my understanding of the LC internals. I put together a very simple stack that's nothing more than a field "Test" and a button. The button script looks like this: on mouseUp putNumbers
