I am getting involved in consulting with someone that wants to write
a HyperCard stack to teach Hindu. The only problem I see is in
picking up phrases in Hindu from a field, reading the field contents
into a Script, and performing some type of conditional decision
based on the contents of the field.
In particular, I am referring to the limitation of not being able to
change to the Hindu font I am using in the Script. Can I simply get
around this by typing in the keystroke equivalents that produced the
Hindu field text? Also, how could I get HyperCard to respond from a
Script to the stack user in Hindu?
Thanks in advance for any info about writing scripts that use text
characters other than the "standard" ones.
