[comp.sys.mac.hypercard] Hyper intro

RMG3@psuvm.psu.edu (09/19/90)

  I would like to get hold of a Hypercard book that would introduce
Hypercard programming in a manner similar to say Grogono on Pascal, or
K+R on C.  Namely, I'd like to see the chapters be on the order of
Expressions
Loops
Branching
Function and Subroutines
I/O
and so forth.
  The intro to scripting book from Apple talked mostly about sound effects
and visual effects.  It didn't bother to talk about how to set up a program
where the effects could augment the program rather than _be_ the program.
  The Hypercard books I've seen at bookstores have basically followed
Apple's lead on this.  I'm hoping that was just my bad luck.

  I'll summarize if there are more than, say, five responses.  Please do
answer by e-mail.  I have a sneaking suspicion that this question is not
uncommon (though perhaps not in this form).

  Thanks,
Bob Grumbine a.k.a. rmg3@psuvm.psu.edu
