Live LiveCode code event #26

[BvG]

Hi guys

We're back for another Saturday event:

Mark Schonewille will introduce you to way to extend LiveCode when LiveCode can't do it alone. He will explore the possibilities of "shell", "open process", "do as" and "launch program".

John Craig will also be back, and share with us some thoughts on how to use and create IDE Plugins in LiveCode, as well as an updated view on his MobGUI.

Kudos to Mark for the shell session - great idea.

Hi

Here is the wrap up from the last event. I'm sorry it's a bit late, but having no presenters stresses me out disproportionally.

Mark went first, and showed a lot of ways to extend liveCode scripts with external applications, shells, applescript, and so on. This should be especially interesting to people who run into limitations in functionality within LC, and need to create a workaround.

Then John showed more of his mobGUI plugin, and where he intends to go with it in the future. It currently allows you to create most native iOS GUI widgets, and he is considering Android too.
