Nope. Right now I'm mostly working on projects unrelated to Scratch.

Anyways, I decided to see how many features I could cram in a Scratch mod while still keeping it backwards compatible. Surprisingly many.

New (not really, they're coded into Scratch) blocks include:

(costume name :: looks)
while <> :: cstart control
end
for each [v v] in (10) :: cstart control
end
(counter :: control)
clear counter :: control
incr counter :: control
<loud? :: sensing>

There are two new categories, Literals and Obsolete. Literals contains blocks representing literal values, such as:

<true :: operators>
<false :: operators>
(null :: operators)
(Infinity :: operators)
(-Infinity :: operators)
(NaN :: operators) //not really useful
(hex [0xffffff] :: operators) //you can also type hex values into number inputs

Obsolete just contains a bunch of useless but cool obsolete blocks.

More features:

• More keys in the <key [space v] pressed?> block, including backspace, enter, tab, escape, delete, special (shift, control, f keys, etc.), and basically every other character in the Basic Latin block.
  
• Put any reporter or boolean block almost anywhere
  
• The ability to type choices in menu inputs
  
• Menus, number menus, color inputs, and icons in custom blocks
  
• Change the color of watchers (you can even make them transparent!)
  
• Duplicate and delete watchers
  
• Enables a hidden watcher mode, which I like to call “fatty mode”
  
• Right-click a block to modify its JSON or view its op
  

You can use it here! But remember, uploading projects made with mods is against the Scratch terms of use.

Here's the source code too: https://github.com/djdolphin/gingerline

To do:

1. Rewrite to make easier to update.
   
2. Fix weird bug.
   
3. Add semi-functional first-class arrays and objects!
