gps tracker

[Mike Kerner]

I ALWAYS remove Exits On Suspend.  As part of my little
every-new-release-of-LiveCode thing, there's that, there's whatever FIXes
I've submitted that aren't kid-tested/mother-approved, yet, etc.  Now if we
could get push working better so I could make syncing happen in the

On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth
On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
   and did a little diving.
And God said, "This is good."
