[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Need documentation for HC 2.0 externals

taylorj@yvax.byu.edu (10/04/90)

Anybody know where to get documentation for the new XCMD interface in HC 2.0?
(It's not included with the 5-disk release and it's not in "HyperTalk 2.0: The
Book".)  I'd like to use the new interface and try writing a better message
watcher.  (Docs about the message watcher would be even more helpful!)

Yepp, I'm just about to send out the info. I will post it to sumex, but 
who knows how long that will take ;-)
I'll also try to make it available via anonymous ftp from apple.com.
The compressed file is available since yesterday on AppleLink (for the few 
of you who have access) in Developer Services:Macintosh Developer 
Technical Support:HyperCard.

More news as it happens.

Any plans to publish info on WTRNs?
