Does anybody in hypercard world know the right documentation to implement XCMDs with Lightspeed C? If such a documentation doesnot exist, I would be glad to have minimal information about difficulties encountered by an experienced developer. We have succeeded in making XCMDs with MPW and we are willing to try with LSC.

Jerome, there is an execellent book on writing XCMDs called "XCMD's for HyperCard" by Gary Bond (put out by MIS: Press). It is filled with example XCMDs in MPW Pascal and LSC (almost every example is in both languages). It is practically a required text for XCMD/XFCN writers and is clearly written to boot (I'll leave off all disparaging comments about Inside Mac). You can also order a disk that contains all the source examples discussed in the book (though most of the source that's general enough to be worth copying is short enough to enter by hand w/out much problem).
