Is there a program for DOS machines that will run unaltered Hypercard stacks? We have ToolBook, but we will still have to rewrite the scripts. A program that will run Hypercard stacks w/o allowing changes would work too. -Mike

It's called I ConvertIt! from Heizer Software (Pleasant Hill, CA, USA, Phone 415-943-7667). WindowCraft has just been released. It allows Hypercard stacks to be run unaltered (I think), as does Plus, which has either just been released, or is about to be released. -- Roger Hadgraft | hadgraft@civeng.monash.edu.au Lecturer in Civil Engineering | Monash University | phone: +61 3 565 4983 Clayton, Vic. 3168.

In addition, Spinnaker Software has an ad in this week's Windows at Work Supplement of PC Week for Spinnaker PLUS 2.0 (what was 1.0?) which is a HyperCard like application environment that runs on Mac and PC in Windows and OS/2. Anyway, they claim to be able to "import and enhance existing HyperCard stacks." Their number for a free demo copy is 1-800-323-8088 ext. 555 (617-494-1200 in MA, with same ext). +-----All Views Expressed Are My Own And Are Not Necessarily Shared By------+ +------------------------------My Employer----------------------------------+ + Ronald S.
