I'm experimenting with my first xcmd's, written in Lightspeed C, and to be called from hypertalk. I'm using Danny Goodman's Developers Guide, though I've also looked at an article in May's Dr. Dobb's Journal by J.M. Anderson. I'm new to the Mac, and new to LSC, though I've been around Unix, C and Dos for quite some time. Here's my problem: both of my sources show that an include file, "XCmd.h" (Anderson) or something like "HyperXCmd.h" (Goodman) is required at compile-time. Neither these files, or anything similar seem to be on either of the two LSC distribution disks. Can anyone help me here? Also, the Anderson article mentions a book, 'XCMDs for HyperCard' by Gary Bond, which he says has 'well-worked examples in Lightspeed C.' Does anyone know anything about this book? Thanks.

It's very good as far as XCMD examples go. I don't have the book in front of me, but I believe that it also has both the header file and the interfaces header file source that you're looking for. The book can be purchased almost everywhere, like Walden books or Egghead. -Owen Owen Hartnett Brown University Computer Science omh@cs.brown.edu.CSNET
