I posted a few days ago a request for information about "Hyperscan".
I got a couple of responses, for which I am grateful, and I thought I would
tell you all what the responses were.
Hyperscan is a Hypercard stack, written by Bill Atkinson, which will drive
the AppleScanner (and in fact is included with it now - though not on the
last release in the UK, though perhaps it is by now), and is not public
domain. I was told that if I wished to use it I could license it from Apple
Licensing. The very useful feature about the driver is that it will create
a hypercard card with your scanned picture on it (or so someone else told me).
Yet again, mucho gracias for the info - some of it from someone at Apple!
(I don't know why that should be a surprise to me- though I guess it stems
from a time about 2 years ago when I asked the Tech people at Apple UK about
the "pritner access protocol" stuff and they said they'd never heard of
it :-) )
