Am I the only one who wants dot syntax and short assigments like
myVariable = field("foo").text
instead of the verbose syntax?
I understand that this stems from the fact that LC is really so similar to
Director. LC is what Director should have been for mobile development...
But then,didn't runrev try to achieve this similarity on purpose?
I want my dot syntax back! :-)
Honk if you want dot syntax!
