Actually, I am beginning to wonder what "stable' might mean at the best
of times.
For the last few weeks I have been trying to read data on an external
"turtle" connected to
a Windows 7 box via a USB cable with No joy at all.
Yesterday I stumbled across a remark that something to do with
communication with
serial ports had been broken post LiveCode 4.0.
I installed LiveCode 4.0 on my Windows 7 box and things began working;
which they did not
with LiveCode 7.0.

So, I will assume that EVERY SINGLE RELEASE of LiveCode after 4.0 is
"Beta", "Bugged" or whatever,
as a broken capability has never been fixed.
---------------
I have always thought that the idea of releasing new versions of
software was to improve on earlier versions.
And by "improving" I don't mean ignoring the fact that while you have
improved your thing in one area you have
broken something else.
Guess I must be wrong.
Richmond.
