LGBT rainbow colours

I wonder about 2 things:

1. Can one do this sort of thing (pseudocode ?):

Code: Select all

put the script of button "Bomb" into field "Cheese"
2. IF #1 is possible will it retain the colourisation from the script editor?

IF #2 is NOT possible how can I apply script colourisation to script bits in a standard text field?

Hi Richmond,

this affords 2 steps!

Code: Select all

...
put the script of button "Bomb" into field "Cheese"
_internal script colorize char 1 to (the number of chars of field "Cheese") of field "Cheese"
...
That should do the trick.

That is beyond marvellous!

Where does one find out about internal scripts?

These are undocumented features, so the answer is "nowhere".

Well, you have either got a hotline to God, or you spend all your time digging through the IDE. 8)

I've just a memory like an elephant. :-)

Have read this on the mailinglist some years ago, but could remember
that I already answered this question here a couple of months ago.

I wonder, re the old open source version, how one can 'open' things up to find other undocumented stuff that is as useful as that?

There are threads about undocumented native words. Do a search for "messagemessages"

Indeed: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=39085&p=229683&hili ... es#p229683

But those clever stacks ONLY allow you to search for terms you already know (exactly the same sort of problem as the Dictionary).

Richmond.

Exactly, which is why I wondered why a list of undocumented native words was so mysteriously unavailable. I bet such a list likely contains gold. The "messageMessages" has come in wildly useful now and then.
