-- HEY, THAT CAUGHT YOUR ATTENTION --

So, here I am in the Windy City, and using an iMac in a shared common room in a condo where my friends stay:
downloading LC 9: whether this Mac will actually let me install the thing has yet to be seen.

However, on a long flight from Warsaw to JFK I had a weird dream, as one does, and wondered about something like this:

[pseudo-code]

if within(img "whatever",the mouseloc) then

and had a funny feeling that that might prove more difficult than it seems . . .

So, this posting is done for 2 reasons:

1. IFF the iMac will let me install LC, I'll have a bash at trying to sort this out.

2. ORR (yup; my way of writing 'exclusive OR') so someone else reading this can come up with something.

Should be back at my machines in Bulgaria on Tuesday (God and Osama Bin Laden's cousins permitting).

Oddly enough I was able to copy the LC 9 executable onto the iMac's desktop, but got this on launch:

Aha: running macOS 10.8.5

Installed LC 8.1.9 to the desktop (user acc. setup to prevent people like me installing to Apps folder).

Code: Select all

on mouseDown
   if the mouseLoc is within the rect of img "rp" then
      put "INSIDE"
   else
      put "OUTWITH"
      end if
end mouseDown

pips!

The first part of my dream was about JAMMER KEYBOARDS with hexagonal keys.

Right: I'm "back in da hood" and salivating about JAMMER KEYBOARDS and THEREMINS

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theremin

Obviously (!), to make anything going in that direction (Theremin) I need to
be able to:

1. Generate a note (or, possibly, leverage an embedded sound).

2. adjust PITCH and FREQUENCY, et al.
