The older SC version have not complete EL programming capabilities as a fact
intended to be true by Omega Research.
This was possible by using a third party product that was able to emulate the
Power Editor within SC, what Omega never allowed (otherwise, they shloud have
proposed this as a standard or an option).
In fact, old SC with the wild Power Editor was roughly the same than TS
offline for a considerable lower price.
Under these considerations, it is not so strange that the latest SC versions
were modified ("crippled") by Omega to forbid this kind of wild use.
It is often strange to me to read on this list some things that are beearing a
lot of logical contradictions.
Omega focuses too much hate here than expectable:
If they succed commercially, it is bad.
If they do not succed with their IPO (considering the omega stock price), is
is bad too, and the proof that they are bad. (If stocks prices were really a
mirror of the company value, I thing that trading could not be possible).
If they officialy claim that they will fix the year 2000 problem with a patch,
it does not decrease the number of messages telling that they will not do.
If they protect their software, it is more bad than bad.
If they release a bugged version, I do not want to think what will happen
here.
If they do not release a new version in time to avoid the above problem, they
are bad programmers.
Despite of all above, TS remains an unmatched commercially available
program,even if it is still a 16 bit one.
The truth behind this could be (as we use to say in french):
