@helge i think in regard to #hypercard apple i.e. tim cook thinks of it as a dead cow.
#apple just should open source #hypercard si someone on the interwebz can built a proper new client which is 100% backwards compatible to still existing stacks.
is apple even on mastodon or are they still sitting in the shithole that is called X formerly known as twitter?

The "New Stack" dialog box from HyperCard, as seen in ResEdit. But it's not from HyperCard. It's actually from Myst.
How much is the original Mac release of #Myst just a fancied-up #HyperCard?
Very much, thank you.
Video reco. The story of #HyperCard. Well told.

Two-bit HyperCard clip art image showing a Tyrannosaurus Rex playing some cords on an electric guitar. The tail props the animal as a third leg. The eyes look both closed in concentration or looking up, depending on how you perceive them.

This guitar-rocking Tyrannosaurus Rex was my favorite from this stack. And the fact that you could lasso it from the stack was magical at the time.

I’m not kidding. At the time, I really struggled to understand what #OpenDoc was meant to do for us. Now, three decades later, this article provides the clearest explanation I’ve seen.
It feels like a bizarre love child of #Hypercard and #HTML 2.0’s page layout/markup ethos.

How many lives and careers were influenced by #HyperCard?
@cyan.com started life with the HC stack, The Manhole
@worrydream.com built "HyperCard in the World"
@wikipedia.org came out of experiments in it
For my latest post, I get to know HC better and consider English as a development language.
🪨 HyperCard on the Macintosh 🛠️
The "software erector set" that launched careers and came close to delivering us the web 6 years early. Our last post of '25 takes a deep look at this important title. Happy holidays!

I’ve been working on an obscure #HyperCard feature as of late. You can support multiple language translations for #HyperTalk with a WTRN resource. A Wildtalk Translator.
The only reference I’ve found is in HyperTalk 2.2 The Book. There is Mac Pascal source code for two examples.
Learned something new today. I didn't know in #HyperTalk for #HyperCard 2.4.1 you could use "answer folder" to ask the user to select a folder. It must have been added after the 2.2 reference I'm using.
