It’s true for many of us that we have extra time on our hands at the moment. That extra time presents the opportunity to start or finish those tasks you’ve always been meaning to do. For me that could have been finally getting round to painting the garden fence five years after it was put up (unpainted), clearing out the garage, or sorting out my junk room – I mean spare room! I can confirm that after what has been about a month of me being at home I have not started any of those jobs. I have however tried to build a mini-golf course in my back garden and, which you may be more interested in hearing about, got stuck into some coding challenges.

WordLib Update Released
by Curry Kenworthy on October 2, 2018 No commentsWordLib imports MS Word and Open Office documents right into your LiveCode fields. This is all done natively without relying on any other software, API, or interface to do the job. Nor is it based on someone else’s code. Not even Microsoft’s. That’s actually a big deal; as a pure LiveCode script solution, independent and original, built from the ground up, WordLib can target MS Word and LiveCode like nobody else. You don’t even need a word processor or DLL installed to use it; that’s the whole point. You just need LiveCode, WordLib, a document, and a field. Any platform. One line of code. You’re done.

It is targeted at children from as young as 2 or 3 years old. The app is a collaboration between HHOTT and So-Easy International.
