Yes, he does bang on in the same way, doesn't he?

I don't have any real great urge to please 'amthony'; even if he does
need have a serious spelling problem . . . LOL
Mind you, come to think of things he may, indeed be called 'Amthony' as
the standard of his English grammar is fairly awful:
Hey, anyone on the Use-List know of a country where 'Amthony' is a name?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
However, the thing that "got to me" in that posting was this:
"All that and I'd still fork over my money and be an advocate if I saw
anything more than a utility or less than commercially polished app done
in livecode."
There are buckets of "commercially polished app"s made with Livecode:
obviously this chap needs a few shoved in his face.
The fact that they don't seem to be being shoved in the faces of people
like 'Amthony' is a bit worrying.
Of course "Not only do som of these apps look like they were built by
kids - Some WERE built by kids." (sic) is plain silly,
as I have kids over here in Bulgaria who have made apps with Livecode;
and I think that is marvellous, not a negative point
at all. But 'Amthony' obviously suffers from the profoundly erroneous
illusion that adults are always better than kids. He
should come over here and work with me; I get put on the spot on average
about twice a week, by kids; God Bless Them.
