Thanks for reframing the problem Bjoernke!
Actually, I have the 3.5 CGI but as I arrived on planet LiveCode
after version 4, I'm concerned about just how limited my palette
would be with v3.5 engine and UI controls. This is especially the
case as I've used several plug-ins and externals in my concept
demonstrators and as I'm sure these won't roll-back elegantly, I lack
the environment or capability to undertake rigorous unit and
integration test of all of those against 3.5, to establish my hard
limits for the product re-engineering toolset.
If you use LiveCode as a CGI you will see no significant differences
between 3.5 and 4.x, because a CGI is faceless -- no GUI, no window
display. The capabilities added to 4.0 are mostly graphical features
which CGIs do not support anyway. There is no screen display for a CGI.
Think of a CGI as you do the message box. Text only, in and out.
