The subject says it all. I'm wondering if there are any Hypercard
look-alikes for the IBM PC?
Thanx in advance,

It was around before Hypercard, and I believe the author may have sued Apple over look and feel...:) And it's shareware.

HyperPad works well, except it uses character graphics, as an MS-DOS based HyperCard work-alike. -- Tom Thackrey sun!amdahl!tat00 [ The opinions expressed herin are mine alone. ]

Zoomracks doesn't look ANYTHING like Hypercard. It's hard to see why Paul Heckel was able to get Apple to pay for the technology. Jeff Dean uunet!pyramid!cdp!jeff

There is a hypermedia product called LinkWay which was developed and is being marketed by IBM. It's not a "Hypercard for the PC", but offers the same basic functionality, with buttons, scripts, pop-ups, pictures, etc., and there is a run-time version also available, so that your applications can be distributed ready-to-run. -- n8541751@unicorn.wwu.edu | Theory is useless without practical application 8541751@nessie.wwu.edu | and does not constitute practical application in krisb@goose.wwu.edu | and of itself unless one is a professor. -KMB
