Importing "lists" to Scratch

Wouldn't it be nice if you could import data to Scratch?

For example, you make a game where you write words. For it you need to have a dictionary to compare the words you write. But importing a dictionary word by word isn't the coolest thing to do. If that feature was added to Scratch that wouldn't be a problem.

.... and so on

Re: Importing "lists" to Scratch

Yes, that would be nice. I always have problems when I need to plug in a lot of data, and it just wouldn't work putting it all in manually. Scratch needs to support list importing a little it more than it does now.

Re: Importing "lists" to Scratch

You know you can right click lists and choose 'import list', right?

Re: Importing "lists" to Scratch

Yes, you can import lists.

(just make sure that separate items are separated by enter/return)

When you make a list, it'll show up on the stage, right? Right click that and you'll have the choice of export, import, and hide.
