API

[Peter W A Wood]

I believe that Richard’s “providing OS API access” is a simplification, probably an over simplification, of “providing the ability to access the OS API”. As I understand, LiveCode Builder will allow us to write code which can directly call an OS API but, of course, we will need to define the OS API function in LiveCode Builder. 

I had a quick scan of the LiveCode Builder files in Github but didn’t see any examples so the facility may not even be in the current release .

Regards
