That'd be nice. And as long as we're dreaming, how about:
repeat for each card c in this stack
repeat for each button b of this card
I had to do that for myself way back in hypercard . . . it was absolutely
necessary for what I was doing, and I've never understood why it wasn't
part of the language.
Why not just have a script something like this:
put 1 into KARD
repeat until exists(card KARD) = false
-- do whatever you want on card KARD
put (KARD + 1) into KARD
end repeat
I have just tested this on a 50 card stack which has a button on the
first card
with this fairly trivial script:
on mouseUp
put 1 into KARD
repeat until exists(card KARD) = false
set the backgroundColor of card KARD to blue
put (KARD + 1) into KARD
end repeat
end mouseUp
--------------------
so, quite frankly: "repeat for each card c in this stack"
doesn't seem worth bothering about.
-------------------
AND, presumably, as cannot be bothered to try this out;
"repeat for each button b of this card"
can be handled in a similar way.
----------------------
Surely, there are more interesting enhancements we could ask for?
