A few weeks ago someone mentioned a large HyperCard stack from Apple DTS that provides technical support information. Apparently this is a 1.8 meg stack. I would very much like a copy of this, but my system no longer has this message available. Can someone please tell me where to find the stack? Please DO NOT try to e-mail the stack to me. I don't want to clog the nets. Please DO, however, e-mail me with possible sources for the stack. If anyone else is interested, let me know and I will post a followup message with the information. -- Mark H.

You can also find copies on several other FTP and archive sites like SUMEX, Rascal, PUCC, and SIMTEL-20. However, you should not grab the current stack (V3.1) as we are about to release a new and updated version in conjunction with the second version of "Phil & Dave's Excellent CD."

The stack I'm guessing you're talking about is the Tech Note stack. This is available at apple.com (IP address 130.43.2.2) in pub/dts/mac/tn. Just today (or a few days ago) Apple released a new updated version of the stack, which is also available there. <a few ftp commands later...> I just checked apple.com to see if this was right, and now I have found the stack to be missing. So, if you would like the previous version of the TN stack, I have it at our site available via anonymous ftp in the directory pub/mac/pub/programming/tn/tn.stack. I have broken it up into roughly 260K chunks, which are more manageable to ftp and download. When the new release of the stack is available, you should be able to find it at apple.com, and I will have it at our site also. Just a few postings ago this was mentioned, so it should be available soon (hopefully today). Hope this helps. ||+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|| || Blayne Puklich nopuklic@Plains.NoDak.EDU "I think I'm going || || NDSU Student ACM Vice-Chair bald..." || || North Dakota State University, Fargo, ND -- Rush, from Caress || || (701) 237-4408 of Steel, 1975 || || Damn it's cold up here in the Great White North! || || Alternate address: puklich@Sparky.NoDak.EDU (Until Dec 7th). || ||-------------------------------------------------------------------------||

Look for it within two weeks. Would it be possible for you to post it to comp.binaries.mac? Those of us without FTP access would sure appreciate it!
