Exactly: the key word in my posting was "hook".

Obviously an online version of LiveCode would have to be a cut-down version;
but it should be sufficient to generate interest in the whole shebang.

I have had conversations with many people who "cannot be a*sed" to download
LiveCode and install it 'just' to try it out (which, in my opinion, doesn't say very much for them); so, by having an easily accessible online version to "dangle under
their noses", that lassitude/passivity may be circumvented.

With LC's main benefits being rapid deployment of GUI apps, this sort of
CLI can be useful for some things but not a key value driver for the
company.

But I agree it wouldn't be hard to do.  For those who want it, why not
just make it?

and thought that a version of LiveCode (7.1.4 perhaps) available as an
online
thing might be a good 'hook'.
