Added LiveCode to list on Wikipedia

[garmeister]

I noticed that LiveCode was missing from the list of cross-platform software which included others like Xojo, PureBasic etc... So I added LiveCode.

Cheers,

Nice one Gary,
I really would have expected LiveCode Ltd to have preempted this and many similar situations, but you've done their job for them

but spot the difference in marketing:

LiveCode: a commercial cross-platform rapid application development language inspired by HyperTalk.
...
Xojo: a RAD IDE that uses an object-oriented programming language to create desktop, web and iOS apps. Xojo makes native, compiled desktop apps for macOS, Windows, Linux and Raspberry Pi. It creates compiled web apps that can be run as standalone servers or through CGI. And it recently added the ability to create native iOS apps.

From what I have seen over the last 20 years, re marketing, LiveCode could not fight themselves out of a paper bag.

Currently interviewing new children for my language school: explaining all sorts of stuff,
the "Richmond advantage" to parents when my language school directly competes with 20+
other language schools: at the end of the day I am more drained than when I actually teach:
obviously LiveCode either couldn't be bothered (well, the thing will just float because any old
fool can see how much better it is than other programming languages), or they weren't prepared
to put money into a decent marketing company to get the job done.

I would far rather people just walked into my school, went "Yeah" and left their kids (and their money)
with me: but the world does not work that way, even if the sun shines out of my backside (problem
is that only I can see that).
