We have gotten some Hypercards for our Macintoshes and are wondering what stacks are considered the "basic" ones that everyone has besides those that come with the program (like everyone has a word processor and drawing program). If it matters, we have no plans to do serious programming with Hypercard, but we are programmers and don't have any qualms about jumping into code is that's necessary to get something done. -Mark
