suited to copy files from an AppleShare server onto a client machine,
based on where a given application already exists on the client's
hard disk(which folder). So a user would click once on a button, and the work
would be done. I know, it sounds like something that one would expect
to see written in C, Pascal, etc., but can HyperTalk code do this?,
and if so, how easily? In case it matters: each client has 4MB of RAM.
Thanks.
