OpenXTalk Forums

I think OXT and OXT lite deserve a mention on https://hypercard.org/ that the ren'py site links to.

There are quite a lot of places where OXT H & L need to be mentioned.

Mind you, the OXT web site does not really have a very convincing landing page yet.

Oh, and, what IS the name of Paul's OXT ('Paul's OXT' ?)?

"OXT Deluxe Heavy XXL MegaPack Pro"

Part of me (the nasty part) is wondering whether it won't spend forever in the development hell of Paul's garage while we are stuck with RC4.

Possibly too heavy by half.

To be fair, Paul did mention that he'd have less and less time to work on it - and like myself, he's only releasing a version when he feels the time is right.
Perhaps where the differences are between the two versions is mine is a bit like "point releases" - where you gradually see little changes over time. Paul's approach seems to be like 'feature releases' - like the difference going from MacOS 10.9 to 10.15 for example - where you see a big change each time.

But neither of us are under any pressure to release something 'now' don't forget. I'm not being funny when I say this, but would be nice to have contributions passed to Paul for his OXT 'deluxe' version, and if someone spots something they want changed in OXT Lite, they are more than welcome to submit changed code / stacks (whatever).
