One of the 'other jollifications' about LC 963 Open Source is that it does not work on MacOS 15.7.5 on an Intel Mac.

Not that that matters very much when OpenXTalk works there.

Can you check out this and let me know if there is something I should be doing differently.

I have been a long-time LiveCode user and have developed many stacks for my personal use over the years (some of them were even started with HyperCard!).
I was very worried about the day when I would have to move to a current Mac without Rosetta, as I feared losing access to all this work and this personal heritage.
A huge thank you to Emily-Elisabeth, who has already done a remarkable job in creating a native version of LiveCode that runs on current Macs.
Thanks also to all the contributors who are now taking part in this adventure!
I will be following this project with great interest!

Hi Philippe-Martin,

Thank you for the kind words and hopefully HyperXTalk fills the void that LiveCode Community has left. I'd love to see some of your work, especially if it is spanning from HyperCard to now! It's the community that drives HyperXTalk forward, so feel free to come and join us and help shape the future of your programming tool.

Merci pour vos aimables mots et j'espère que HyperXTalk comblera le vide laissé par LiveCode Community. J'adorerais voir certains de vos travaux, surtout s'ils s'étendent de HyperCard jusqu'à aujourd'hui ! C'est la communauté qui fait avancer HyperXTalk, alors n'hésitez pas à nous rejoindre et à contribuer à façonner l'avenir de votre outil de programmation.

~Emily
