Raspberry Pi GPIO

[Michael Doub]

Richard,

You initial gut reaction is STILL correct.   Currently the only solution 
available to livecoders is the file method.  The performance of this 
solution is terrible and limits the types of real world problems that 
can be solved with livecode and raspberry pi.

It would be wonderful if someone could write a library that allowed 
direct access to the actual GPIO driver.  I am hoping someone with 
LiveCode builder skills will solve this problem.  If python can do it, 
so can livecode.
