Send to program

[dunbarx at aol.com]

OK. Fine.


Am I to understand that LiveCode, the great and powerful, cannot do this at all? Am I the first one that ever wanted to send a message to another machine?



A new project I am working on therefore must be authored in Hypercard. I am fine with that. I will just buy a few G4 blue and whites on eBay for $5 each.


Nobody ever ran into this before? Am I the only one who thinks this might be, what, a minor limitation? Don't tell the ordinary procedural programmers, who still think xTalks are for kids. They will never let us live it down.


Who do I whine to?

LOL. I'm flattered, but I had to look it up. I hate to be the bearer of 
bad news, but the dictionary says that what you want to do only 
supported in OS 9.
