I just tried, again, this time, capitalizing the "W" in "Write:"
Write a calendar app in livecode

Here is an example of a simple calendar app written in LiveCode:

Copy code
on mouseUp set the month of the date to 1 set the day of the date to 1
set the year ofthe date to the year of this date repeat for each day
in the month of this date put the short date into field "day_" & the
day of this date add 1 to the day of this date endrepeat end mouseUp

This script sets the date to the first day of the current year, then
iterates through each day in the current month and displays the short date
(e.g. "Jan 1") in a field with a dynamic name (e.g. "day_1").

-- 
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."
