There is a lot of hypermedia work invested in >those stacks. I don't know exactly what you mean by "multimedia applications," but you may want to check out HyperCube by Thoughtful Software. The following excerpt is taken from NeXT's Summer Software and Peripherals Catalog (an excellent catalog, BTW)... --- HyperCube (tm) is a comprehensive hypermedia environment for the NeXT Computer. By combining elements of word processing, drawing, publishing, and database tools together with hypertext linking cabailities, HyperCube allows anyone to create documents ranging from personal applications to hypertext books. Compatibility with HyperCard (r) for the Macintosh provides access to thousands of previously written stack appliations. Powerful extensions make HyperCube an extremely versatile and easy-to-use tool for both producing and using multimedia documents. --- It should be available in 4Q 1990. Try Thoughtful Software at 303/221-4596 for more information. -Declan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Olympic Technologies / Registered NeXT Developers \ declan@portia.stanford.edu ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
