Re: Exit to top?

Wouldn't 'exit to top' in this case stop all execution in the substack and jump back to the calling stack as this is the substacks top?

Re: Livecode Create - thoughts?

Just looked at the LiveCode Create forums, looks like a nice system. Concerning is the low number of users registered at 75. https://discourse.livecode.com/u?order=likes_received ls this an indication of low Create adoption?

Also if I remember correctly, wasn't LiveCode 10 supposed to be the first ...

1. If I build an exe for the company I work for, does this exe become non working if after a period of time the company decides to stop yearly payments?

Well that made me giggle, which had not been the case since the announcement.

I still have a 3.2 version, and thought even ...
