in-app purchase for OS X

As it is made the application market for OS X now, if you're an application developer, I think that it's difficult to think of using LC to create commercial app if there is no support for In-app purchase.
LiveCode could be the paradise of development apps for OS X, but in-app purchasing, support for Retina and support to the standard Toolbar are the three missing features that are necessary to develop decently on OS X.

Hi Mag,
one of the Kickstarter "stretch goals" is a port to Cocoa, I am sure this will make implementing
these kind of special OS X things easier.
Best

Hi Klaus, very sincerely I hope we haven't to wait for Cocoa implementation to know is it's a retina display or not... hope to see a function in a minor release

Hi SteveTX , thank you for your post. I'm sorry if my message was not clear, yes, I know the iOS version, and I already use it, hoping RR will implement soon also a OS X version.

Do you have all the proper accounts and in-app features to purchase? This thing will need to be tested to make sure it is working and I do not have a Mac App Store developer account..

Hi shaosean, yes I have all the requirements, naturally can't share certificates but I can do all the tests needed.
As you certainly know, there is already a iOS version of this feature in current LiveCode version, so the task should be to expand it to cover also OS X (well, I'm not sure I have said something logical here, please forget what I said if I wrote a technical nonsense).

From what I have been reading, it looks pretty much the same on both platforms, so should be easy enough to implement in the engine..
