So, what is the lowest score so far?

I'm new to KiXtart and have been fighting it most of the afternoon. Yes, fighting is the word... Either script error reporting on this thing is RUDE or I'm missing something... I have this cool idea for a bombastic implementation of the current Golf Tournament, but I've been fighting the damn KiX trying to do something that I should be able to do in 30 minutes on a decent language... [Frown]

One such example: I've spent LOADS of time trying to get a function to return something and kept getting a criptic error message! All because I forgot the $ before the function name to return the value! After all, I thought the $ was for variables and the documentation for the Function/EndFunction does IMPLY that it's not used! Sure, the example DOES use it, but I was coding my func from scratch and I took some time to figure that out.

I must say, that in over 20 years of programming in 10s of languages, from several makes of assembler to SmallTalk and many more in between, this one is surely the worst I've seen in syntax error reporting!

As of now, I'm fighting to get the function call to work TWICE!

Almost a nightmare!

Anyway, just felt to take a break and find out what is the current low score to beat!
