New Scratch mod

I am starting work on a modification of Scratch. The main feature is that it will allow you to type in scripts, as well as use blocks. It will automatically convert the code when you switch modes. The current name is TextBlocks, but I am open to ideas for names and features. Any suggestions?

Re: New Scratch mod

This has been tried many times I think... XD never has happened, but I think its cuz ppl are too lazy these days. Some ppl dont even spell right and dont care about abbreviations they skip commas and apostrophies and dont correct spelling even though google chrome has a million red underlines.
XD <- Not a word?


If you are reading this, please read to the end, because if you don't you won't know what's at the end. Don't just skip to the end though otherwise you won't be able to read the middle, which is most important. Now you must be wondering why you just read all that, the reason is you may have not noticed something, read it again and see if you notice it this time  smile

I hope that doesn't happen to this one, but I'm also going to add other features that involve text, such as writing to the console.

Re: New Scratch mod

and yours


Just use the saving blocks from panther, and then make scratch automatically change any insert you put into the scripting place into the code, then make it save a s a file and..

Re: New Scratch mod

Well, couldn't you create a block using BYOB that does this?
Too bad it won't translate to Squeak....
