A true write once, run anywhere, software development language goes Open Source.

My favorite development language is about to be free.

When I turn loose my validation of concept software, it will now become easy for coding experts to analyze every command and function. As an open source app it should spread throughout the world as an amazing example of contradiction. It will be a game changer for casino owners. It will work on smart phones too. That should cause a new round of casino rights.

Excellent news for the open-source community.

http://hypercard.org/ should be tipped about this. They list LiveCode under commercial clones.



For the fellows who don't know, LiveCode is a HyperCard clone.

You can see the similarities in syntax under HyperTalk's examples:

Once can certainly argue it's successful. Still kicking strong after 25 years 

What an amazing product to gladly impress its users! You can read a first-hand experience here:

"Before the World Wide Web did anything, HyperCard did everything." 

HyperCard served as an inspiration for the web-browser!
