incompatibility with scratchblocks

Open ZenithRogue opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

I love how far this project is along! You have far surpassed my attempt at porting scratchblocks to s3blocks. I have however noticed a substantial issue with compatibility with the old scratchblocks parser. This will mean most (if not all) forum posts will be screwed up with the new syntax. Do you have a plan to resolve this?

Issue #42 deals with making a comparison between scratchblocks and Scratch-LN, with the goal to make the two as uniform as possible.

If there's a good reason to use a different syntax in Scratch-LN compared to scratchblocks, we still might think of a compatibility mode such that we could also render a (restricted version) of scratchblocks. The restrictions will always be there because Scratch-LN generated actual Scratch blocks. As a consequence, things like custom colors, custom C-shaped blocks of Snap! extensions can never be supported.
