He may be right about the dir tree search, or maybe we're just forgetting that LC can shell out to bash or other languages (when necessary), then do what it does "best", and manipulate the data efficiency, while presenting it to the user in a friendly UI on multiple platforms.

Well... he is right... iterating the directory tree in python can clearly be done in a less verbose and more readable fashion. Unfortunately people try and sell LiveCode by saying one line of code = many in language X however it's often the case that due to some library etc being available one line in language x might be many hours of coding in LiveCode. If/when there's hundreds of thousands of LiveCode users then we will have lots of libraries to use too... On the upside, what he clearly thinks is hard/harder (his bonus points) is the GUI for the user to say what image is good and what is bad. That's very easy in LiveCode.
