Being a bit harsh, aren't you, Bob? I don't think he was referring to "English-like" but rather "natural English". I don't think it's the same thing. Livecode can be described as "English-like", but probably not "natural English". I could be wrong, in which case, as they say in these parts, send the apologies of me to the target. end Dave _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
