[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] XFCN/XCMD for Application List

fosler@eniac.seas.upenn.edu (John Eric Fosler) (06/14/91)

Does anyone know of a XFCN/XCMD that will return a list of the active
applications under MultiFinder/System 7?

Thanks in advance...
Eric

With Hypercard 2.0 or greater, none is needed.

In Hypercard 2.0 just "get last menu".  This will return a line by
line list of the contents of the "application" menu.

In Hypercard 2.1 you can "get menu "Application"".

You're welcome.
