[Laszlo-dev] Simple idea on how to update dynamic instantiation of user classes

[Philip Romanik]

Hi Don,

I'm working on LPP-6570 to deprecate a number of global services like 
LzModeManager. Will it be easy to  modify your script so that these 
transformations are made to lzx files?

LzAudio         => lz.Audio
LzBrowser               => lz.Browser
LzCursor                => lz.Cursor
LzFocus         => lz.Focus
LzGlobalMouse   => lz.GlobalMouse
LzHistory               => lz.History
LzIdle                  => lz.Idle
LzInstantiator          => lz.Instantiator
LzKeys          => lz.Keys
LzModeManager   => lz.ModeManager
LzTimer         => lz.Timer
LzTrack         => lz.Track


Thanks!

Phil
