Re: screen recorder

Jacque.

Very soon the world will catch up to your level of skepticism, assuming you do not keep increasing it, and then all will be, er, uh, oh.

Re: screen recorder

No idea, is that even possible?
No. Soon, maybe. :shock:

I have always wanted to see a new film where John Wayne fights Godzilla, and you cannot tell that it is not the real John Wayne.

Re: screen recorder

Klaus.

You are only off by five years. That is a 33% error. Not bad.

I checked out Manolo's other posts. He has a handful, and they all seem very real.

But I see what made Jacque say what she did, so maybe he was taken over by a bot?

Re: bitAnd Oddity?

Richmond, "bitAnd" was not in the HC lexicon. It was introduced in v.1.0 of LC.

Re: filter command limitation?

Sparkout.

That did the trick, of course. I cannot see any traps where too much filtering might occur. Your idea is already, as I thought, restricted line by line by LC itself, and it reads to me that any line containing any string would be deleted.

Thank you. :D

Re: filter command limitation?

Sparkout.

Oooh. I will try that, and I realize I have done that sort of thing before. :oops: I think the fact that I am filtering by lines obviates the need to worry about returns or anything else. LC will consider only lines.

I think it just like Emily to add two enhancements while simply changing the residence of a handler. :wink:

LC quits now and then

Every month or two. It always happens when I am closing a stack or making a copy of a stack. I have mentioned this for years.

Never a corruption, but is this sinister, and a reason to upgrade to v 10?

Re: Secure Text

Stam, Emily.
however the startup message is sent to the card, not the stack, so it doesn't fire, at least on LC10/Classic.
Been that way forever, it is how LC works. Always use the card, or, as Stam mentions, "preopenStack".

Re: Forum unable to deal with spam

Stam. Why would the forum go away just because (choke, sniffle) LC10 went away? What else would I do first thing in the morning?

Heather? Thoughts?

Re: [ ANN ] Release LiveCode 10.0.3 RC-2

Jacque. Wrong; wind speed is utterly irrelevant. "Spurious" comes to mind. The issue is energy, nothing else. However, Gemini in the last paragraph reluctantly does get it right, though neither clearly nor persuasively. Even an astute person might miss that, or perhaps consider it an obscure and unl...

Re: [ ANN ] Release LiveCode 10.0.3 RC-2

Jacque. Ah, AI. I have had, since 2016, a running battle with a handful of very smart people. "Can a seagull hover, for any finite time period, over a fixed point on the earth in a horizontal breeze without flapping its wings?". It cannot. Two people died along the way. Really.

Re: [ ANN ] Release LiveCode 10.0.3 RC-2

Jacque. LC has said they will support the current IDE until (or through?) 2027. After that we're on our own. I recall that, and knowing how things go in the real world, I bet it will carry on for a while after that. Anyway, "on our own" does not bother me. If I always have even my current LC 9.6.9 I...

Re: [ ANN ] Release LiveCode 10.0.3 RC-2

Richmond. By "another place", do you mean the ongoing community world, or some version of LC 10 before it is subsumed into Create? Maybe either? I am not worried about spies, I am worried, likely without foundation, that the Create paradigm will replace the hands-on old fashioned one. I think Stam h...
