I notice that many people are now using HyperCard 1.2.5. How is HC 1.2.5 different from HC 1.2.2 ? Does it have new features, fix bugs, or necessary only to use with newer versions of the system and finder? Thanks, Keith

Its main purpose in life was compatibility with 6.0.4 and the new CPUs it was released with; however, there are also some bug fixes which help prevent corruption of very large (over 8MB) stacks. 1.2.5 has no new features, and both it and 1.2.2 are currently supported and recommended versions. -- ====== jeanne a. e. devoto ======================================== jdevoto@apple.com | You may not distribute this article under a jdevoto@well.UUCP | compilation copyright without my permission. ___________________________________________________________________ Apple Computer and I are not authorized | CI$: 72411,165 to speak for each other. | AppleLink: SQA.TEST
