Type: HyperCard stack
Requires: 8-bit colour, HyperCard 2.2 or newer
AddColor's transitions, when chosen from the menu in the color palette,
are assigned to a card, so that you get the transition whenever you go
the card. But what if you wanted to have separate transitions, so that
the transition depends on what card you started out from? The problem is
solved in the simple scripts of this stack. Full on-line documentation
of what goes on.

How could it *not* be a Pick?
+++ ANIMATE XCMD 1.0 +++
The ANIMATE XCMD provides a simple way of adding flicker-free graphic
animations to a HyperCard stack. You can animate any size picture over
any background picture you specify. The animation is produced using the
same methods for animation used in today's computer games.
The stack includes several demonstrations of the XCMD in action. The
stack is totally open for all eyes to view the scripts.
The ANIMATE XCMD was created using HeizerSoftware's CompileIt! 2.6.1.
The stack and XCMD are not free. If you use the XCMD in any of your
stacks, you must pay the shareware fee. A registration payment of $5
will allow you to include the XCMD in as many stacks as you like, and
you will receive a copy of the updated versions. If you wish to use this
XCMD in commercial stacks, $10 will allow you unlimited use. This stack
and the ANIMATE XCMD are both shareware. You may freely distributed
this stack as long as it is not changed in anyway.

Subject: ArrayMaster 1.0b1
ArrayMaster 1.0b1 © Ben Lawson 1996. Free for personal use. This HyperCard
2.2+ stack is compressed and BinHexed with DropStuff. It can be used as a
tutorial on how to simulate arrays with HyperTalk, as a HyperTalk scripting
example, or as a tool to process up to 30 K of array data directly.
(Basically, it makes heavy use of the "itemDelimiter" property.)
Five Hypertalk functions provide this array functionality.
Get an array element's value: getArrayElement().
Change an array element's value: setArrayElement().
Insert an array element: insertArrayElement().
Delete an array element: deleteArrayElement().
Change an array's delimiters: convertArray().
Example:
put "11,12,13,14" & return & "21,22,23,24" into theArray
answer getArrayElement(theArray,2,3) -- returns "23"
This is a moderately tested beta version, please send comments or bug

Of course, the indices can be numbers as well, so these externals provide
true arrays for HyperCard.

AutoCheck XFCN
©1996 ZiggySoft, By Paul Consolo
e-mail: paul_consolo@mix.it
The Mac graphic environment is very different from the one of IBM
mini-systems (like old AS400). Yes, this is well-known. But, although the
many advantages of our Mac, some little feature, especially for commercial
purposes, is not present.
In Macintosh, the editing of standard fields, for example, rarely can be
controlled "as-you-type", but only checked after the text is completely
entered. Thus, also in HyperCard.
AutoCheck is an XFCN that, involving the "keyDown" hyperTalk function,
allows a "char-by-char" control of the text you type on a field; you can
decide to enter only numbers, letters, regular dates, formatted text, or
any group of predefined chars. The entered char can be automatically
modified (upper case, lower case, initial caps) and the total string lenght
can be limited to any number of chars.

ButtonTalk is an easy to use tool for creating interactive
fiction. It may also be useful for documentation, and for
scripts or prototypes of interactive products. My goal is
to explore some notions of how writers can create interac-
tive fiction and what the possibilities are. My method is
to give you a simple and powerful authoring tool that lets
you create finished products.
ButtonTalk 1.4 adds: improved reliability, improved compatibility
with system 7.5.5, multi-file HTML support, page numbers when
writing text files, support for alternate fonts, cut and copy
of page trees, searching for orphaned links, a new shortcut for
removing links, plus minor bug fixes.

Download get-hypertext-xcmd-11.hqx (11,446 KB)
From: (Jeffrey D. Iverson) j5rson@prairie.lakes.com
Subject: GetHyperText XCMD 1.1
GetHyperText takes four parameters, the id of the field, a flag
indicating a card field, a quoted string indicating the styles of the
hot text, and the id of the cursor to use. The field id is just a unique
number that HyperCard assigns to every object. The flag should be true
if used in a card field, false if used in a background field. The quoted
string can contain any of the characters "biuosce" which stand for bold,
italic, underline, outline, shadow, condense, and extend, respectively.
These characters can be used in any combination. The cursor id is any
valid cursor id (this stack contains a magnifying glass cursor with id =
666, the HyperCard hand cursor id = 128).
In order to make this external work with scrolling fields it is
necessary to check the scroll of the field to see if it has changed. If
it has changed, I force HyperCard to update the screen which in turn
causes it to update the data that the external uses to determine if the
mouse is over styled text.
The idea for this external was a similar external by Stan Gilbert,
however, since I wasn't able to locate him to license his, I had to roll
my own. I hope you like it.
As you move the cursor over certain items of text, the cursor changes to
a magnifying glass. Clicking on this text then could take the user to
another card, another stack, or just pop up some useful information as
I've done.

GetMonitors takes no parameters. It returns the following info:

MonitorNumber tells the order that the monitor's card was encountered,
IsMainScreen is true if the screen has the menubar, HasColor is true if
the monitor is set to a color mode (not grays or Black & White),
BitDepth is the current setting for that monitor, BottomCoordinate is
the bottom pixel on that screen, RightCoordinate is the rightmost pixel
on that screen.
Here's what I had when I wrote it:
1,false,false,4,480,1280
2,true,true,8,480,640
Since the monitors sit next to each other, and the one on the right has
the menubar it is considered the main screen, so it's topleft is
considered the Origin, or 0,0 so it's RightCoordinate is 640, and it's
BottomCoordinate is 480. The monitor next to it runs off of the built in
video card, so it loads first, but it's RightCoordinate is 1280, which
is 640 from the first monitor, plus 640 which is its width, and it's
BottomCoordinate is 480, the same as the main screen. This is controlled
by how you move the screens around in the Monitors control panel.

It provides developer buttons that are linked to a card or background of
the target stack and contain handlers that are written and used during
development, but are not part of the final release.
These handlers may be used to ...
<> Layout the buttons and fields of a card or background;
<> Draw borders and dividers;
<> Type titles and labels;
<> Run a test;
<> Import data from a file.
These handlers are saved in the Project Manager and are available
when you develop the next version of your project.
Documentation and an example stack is included.
New in version 1.1 - A Tools popup button that allows you to:
<> Record the tools windows that are open and their locations so that
they always re-open where you want them.
<> Do a Script Search (ss) from an Ask dialog instead of the message
box.
This allows you, for example, to simply type 'field "fieldName"'
instead of '"field ""e&"fieldName""e'.
Also includes a copy of Script Scribe 2.3.

From: "Jonathyn Bet'nct"
Subject: Hyped 2.0.1
Hyped is a HyperCard operating system, designed as the Finder for The Slate,
a fictitious PDA computer that runs entirely on HyperCard.
Hyped is written entirely in HyperTalk for the highest compatibility with
any implementation of HyperCard, except for a small part of it, called a
Lightbox, which makes all the calls for managing files, folders, and disks.
This way, no matter what form of HyperCard you are using, it will still
work, since the Lightbox makes all the calls and is easy to replace with
another. Hyped includes several Lightboxes; one uses AppleScript and makes
calls to the Finder, one makes calls to CreySoft 2000's Icebox Kernel, one
uses Rinaldi XCMDs, one uses Core Collection XCMDs, and the last one is a
Rinaldi/AppleScript hybrid. Lightboxes can also be written in other OSA
languages or XCMDs.
Hyped is now at version 2.0.1. It is faster with its Rinaldi/AppleScript
hybrid Lightbox and more convenient with redesigned icons, multiple Hyped
windows, icon-only view, and a QuickMenu. HyperWrite and the GUI Builder are
now ready to be run (although still no HyperPaint as of yet). Version 2.0.1
includes various bug fixes and cosmetic changes.
Future plans include Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, etc. control panels,
contextual menus, other Hyper* applications... hold on there!

From: ferris@proaxis.com
Subject: HyperCard Dummy 1.2.1
Dummy¹s sole purpose in life is to keep HyperCard running. HyperCard has
a bad habit of requiring at least one stack open at all times when it is
running, making it necessary to switch to some other stack before you
close the one you are working with. So if you are working on a stack,
say HyperWorldPeace, and you want to use ResEdit to add a sound to it,
and you don't want to bother quiting HyperCard, and restarting it, just
leave Dummy open, and you don¹t have to.
Dummy¹s second sole purpose in life complements the first one: Dummy can
automagically close as many stacks as you can open, and do it many times
faster than you could do manually.

lets you create and manage powerful external windows with only HyperTalk
scripts. It's kind of like WindowScript, yes, but some say it's better, and
it's definitely a lot cheaper.
New featuresth includeth, but art not limiteth to:
* A revamped Workshop stack, with an index, zoom controls, a color picker,
and more.
* Each object can have a script to execute when it's clicked.
* Multi-column Lists, and scroll bars to match.
* Buttons, checkboxes, radio buttons, popups, and text fields all disable.
* You can use the Mac OS control styles if you want, instead of the MW ones.
* You can get and set the styles in a TextEdit field from a script. You can
also emboss their frames, scroll them by script, change their justification
and alter the word wrap.
* Various aethetic enhancements.
And there's even more in the stacks. If you've never tried MegaWindow, here's
your chance. It's only ... sit down ... $20 for new users. I can't keep those
prices down much longer, people!
Once you've purchased it, you can distribute as much freeware as you want.

From: mwolfg1@icarus.cc.uic.edu
Subject: Message Box Rebounder 1.0
The Message Box Rebounder is a small tool which simply revitalizes the
HyperCard Player's message box. In essence, it "bounces" the contents of
the message box back up the passing path in a form the Player will
directly execute instead of beeping at. The Rebounder automatically
distinguishes between commands and expressions and includes these
features: retrieval of the last message typed, instant reporting of "the
result" function, support for the standard "it" global variable, and an
available multi-line "Batch Message" field. I can't say what this stack
should be used for -- it really has as many uses as the message box
itself. If you're clever, you could even use this stack to edit most
object scripts.

MsgMem is a HyperCard utility. It allows you to store, reinsert and
execute commands entered in the message box. All commands executed via
the message box are saved to a menu until a user-definable threshold is
reached. Then the older commands are erased. You can also execute
commands without reinserting them in the message box.
MsgMem is shareware. More information on pricing is included with the
package.

This version fixes bugs that would disable MsgMem from running at all.
It now runs, though it still has some minor bugs which are mainly

MyCCursor. XCMD for HyperCard® & SuperCard®
Copyright © 1996. Tracy L. Hinshaw, Parnassien Language Software.
MyCCursor is an XCMD for HyperCard and SuperCard which allows you use
colour cursors in your stacks/projects. Colour cursors are stored in the
resource fork of your stack/project and need only be identified by ID to
work.
MyCCursor is probably most effective when used with SuperCard where
persistent cursors are supported (i.e.: set the lockcursor to true)
although it can be quite useful in HyperCard too.
MyCCursor is provided as freeware for personal use. If you do
incorporate MyCCursor in your stacks/projects, I would appreciate an email
message just to let me know how and where my program is being used.
If you intend to use MyCCursor in any commercial/shareware product, you
must contact the author for licensing and distribution approval at:

Subject: MyCompare XFCN. HyperCard & Supercard
MyCompare(TargetString,TestString). XFCN for HyperCard® & SuperCard®
Copyright © 1996. Tracy L. Hinshaw, Parnassien Language Software.
MyCompare is an XFCN that "compares" two strings and returns an
"analyzed" or "marked" version showing discrepancies between the two.
MyCompare uses three symbols in its return value:
"*" = Indicates a non-matching character in the
test string.
"-" = Indicates a missing character in the
test string.
"+" = Indicates an extra character in the
test string.
EXAMPLE:
TARGET STRING: "Elvis cannot be dead."
TEST STRING: "Elvira can be dad."
RETURN VALUE: "Elvi*+ can--- be d***-."
At this point in its development, MyCompare is fairly strict. It is
case-sensitive and requires that all punctuation, diacriticals and spacing
be exact. If you have a stack or project in which you would rather allow
some latitude (capitalization, punctuation, sloppy typing etc.), simply
convert both strings to upper case and strip out "extraneous" characters
(spaces, punctuation marks...) before comparing. You'll find that with a
little "pre-processing", MyCompare can actually be quite flexible.
MyCompare only recognizes the first 255 characters of input strings at
this point. The next version will recognize up to 30000 chars.
MyCompare is provided as "AnyWare." That is, if you use it, please let me
know by sending "Anything" you have cluttering up your desktop: a poem
you've written, a picture of your dog, a program you've developed, money, a
postcard from your hometown etc. - just something to let me know that my
programs are being used and that they're not gathering cyberdust in a
virtual warehouse somewhere.

The MyDrag XFCN draws an object (rectangle, rounded rectangle, oval) which

returns the new "rect" of your object.
MyDrag allows you to set the following properties:
*Object Shape: Draws rectangles, rounded rectangles

*Pen Size: The thickness (in pixels) of your
object's border
*Pen Pattern: The pattern used to draw the border
(Gray or Black).
*Limit Rect: The rectangle in which your object
may be "dragged" (if different from
the window or screen rect).

of the object to the direction you
provide.

let the user switch out of HyperCard and work on something else, but
then let them know when HyperCard is ready to interact again.

NumStringer is a function that takes two parameters. The first parameter
is a number that will be operated on. The second parameter is the number
of digits that the first number should occupy. If the first parameter
has fewer digits than the second parameter, the result will be the first
parameter padded with leading zeros to fill all the digits. If the first
parameter has more digits than the second parameter, the result will be
the first parameter. I've found this useful in applications where I
needed to serialize a set of documents and could simply append a number,
and still keep them in order.
Examples
NumStringer(999,4) -> 0999
NumStringer(1234,4) -> 1234

Subject: QuickReplace. XFCN for HyperCard & SuperCard
QuickReplace is an XFCN that allows you to find and replace all
occurences of a string in any valid HyperCard/SuperCard container
(variable, field). QuickReplace is case-sensitive and, unlike HyperCard,
distinguishes between accented characters (diacriticals) and their
non-accented counterparts
(for example: é<>e; ñ<>n, etc.).
QuickReplace will find and replace strings up to 255 characters in
length. If an optional fourth parameter is set to "TRUE", QuickReplace
will also return the number of "replacements" performed.
QuickReplace will also find and replace non-printing characters such as
carriage returns, tabs and line-feeds (see "Tips" below).
QuickReplace is provided as "AnyWare." That is, if you use it, please
let me know by sending "Anything" you have cluttering up your desktop: a
poem you've written, a picture of your dog, a program you've developed,
money, a postcard from your hometown etc. - just something to let me know
that my programs are being used and that they're not gathering cyberdust in
a virtual warehouse somewhere. (Please don't send any America On-line disks
though, the 3000 or so that I already have should see me through!)
Any commercial use of QuickReplace must be licensed and approved by the
author.

ScaleListMin. XFCN for HyperCard® & SuperCard®. Copyright © 01/96 Tracy L.
Hinshaw
The ScaleListMIN XFCN takes a delimited list of values, removes the
lowest values and returns:
a) The "average" of the remaining items.
b) The original list with the lowest values removed.
The user decides how many values to remove from the original list and
defines the "item delimiter."
This external is most useful in grade or score-keeping applications where
you wish to figure a scaled or curved note. For example, if, in a given
course, only the top 30 of 35 homework scores were to be included in a
final grade, ScaleListMIN would automatically drop the 5 lowest scores and
return an adjusted average. This external is provided as "AnyWare." That
is, if you use it, please let me know by sending "Anything" you have
cluttering up your desktop: a poem you've written, a picture of your dog,

Sequencer xcmd v 1.5
©Paul B. Beeken, Knowledge Software Consulting, info@knowsoft.com
This is a simple XCMD for hypercard designed to access the Connectix
QuickCAM? but it will control and capture from almost any QT compliant
camera. It uses the quicktime sequencer API to access the default
sequencer. It allows you to pop up a window which displays a preview of
the output of the camera. Optionally, you can specify the port, size,
and style of the window. It even snaps pictures! Now it has been
tested with the color QuickCam and works with the built in video ports of
the PM 8500 series. Read on.
The general syntax this command understands is:
QuickCamSeq open [, upperLeftLoc ][, full | half | quarter ]
[,printerPort | modemPort ][,' style' ][,dontFloat]
'style' can be one of the following:
pallete, plain, box, shadow, side, top
where top is the default. The order after the
"open" command
does not matter.
the value returned is empty if there were no errors
The command creates a window which has the following properties over the
standard set:
brightness 03Ú4b3Ú4100
contrast 03Ú4b3Ú4100
saturation 03Ú4b3Ú4100
sharpness 03Ú4b3Ú4100
hue 03Ú4b3Ú4100
port printerPort | modemPort (Why did I do this? who changes ports
midstream?)
filename ClipBoard | full path name sets a file or clipboard for
pict save
The window responds to the following messages:
snap - snaps the picture to clipboard
pause - pauses the preview
continue - starts the preview
settings - opens the standard QT dialog for the video settings.
The window's name is "©PaulBeeken,KnowSoft" just in case you forget.

Keywords: Scripts Stacks HyperCard Player Peek View Modify
Shareware $5
This fast, feature-laden, but easy to use HyperCard script viewing utility
now has MORE POWER. You can now view and modify the CONTENTS of locked
and/or hidden fields.
Stack Peeker 2.2 allows you to view and MODIFY the "stack" script of a
target stack, AND do the same to the scripts of ALL cards, backgrounds,
buttons and fields anywhere in a target stack, even in stacks which has
been set up to prevent access to the scripts. In this upgrade, you get the
power to modify the contents of every field on every card in a stack
regardless of whether the field is locked, hidden, or both.
Using Stack Peeker, you can create a text file containing the scripts of
every object in a stack. This text file can be opened and printed using any
of the popular word processing or "works" programs. Stack Peeker also
includes the ability to create a searchable library of individual scripts.
All of the above functions can by performed while running Stack Peeker with
the HyperCard PLAYER, even though the Player does not support scripting!
So now, Player owners can view and experiment with the scripts which make
HyperCard stacks work.
Stack Peeker may now be conveniently registered through the Kagi Shareware
service using their REGISTER program which is included with Stack Peeker.
Registration may be made by credit card via E-mail or fax (with
automatically encrypted credit card information for E-mail users), or by
credit card, cash or check (in U.S. dollars) via snail mail.

Copyright © 1/96 Tracy L. Hinshaw
Here is a handy xfcn that removes all instances of a given character from
any valid HyperCard/Supercard container or field. If the optional third
parameter is set, StripChar replaces the instances of the "CharToStrip"
with the new one.
This is handy whenever you want to convert delimited data to a different
formt, when you need to control user input (i.e.: Strip colons, commas,
diacriticals, carriage returns from a response) or when you just want to
get rid of an annoying character for whatever reason.
StripChar will work with containers up to 30000 chars in size. It may
work with containers larger than that but, to tell the truth, I've never
tried it.
StripChar is provided as "AnyWare." That is, if you use it, please let me
know by sending "Anything" you have cluttering up your desktop: a poem
you've written, a picture of your dog, a program you've developed, money, a
postcard from your hometown etc. - just something to let me know that my

From: alainsta@generation.net (Alain Stalder)
Subject: trueColor 1.0.2 for HyperCard 2.1
trueColor provides an intuitive way to work in color in HyperCard.
You can give buttons and fields colors and color pictures.
Buttons can have color icons.
You can cut, copy and paste color pictures and icons
to and from the clipboard.
You can move fields and buttons in color.
The information about the color properties is
stored within the buttons and fields,
so eg. moving a button with a color icon
requires only to move the button,
not the button first, and then a color overlay.
trueColor now works with HyperCard 2.1 or later.
This was possible, because an external function is used
to collect part properties with the additional result that
painting cards is now about 50-100% faster.
As a side effect, trueColor is no longer slow in HyperCard 2.2
on PowerMacs that have Connectix SpeedDoubler installed.
The screen is now locked before going from card to card.
Color fillings are no longer shown on screens with less
than 16 colors/grays (wrong colors were displayed).
trueColor requires HyperCard 2.1 or later
a 68020 or higher, preferably a PowerPC or a fast 68k Mac.
Some features require 32-bit QuickDraw (included in Sys 7),
QuickTime, or a monitor with at least 16 colors/grays.

Subject: true-tools-103-hc.hqx
trueTools contains these five stacks:
truePrint lets you copy the card picture to the clipboard
and, if you want, to print it.
trueConvert converts stacks that use trueColor
to stacks that are colorized using Apple's Color Tools.
vue uses HyperCard's picture command (XCMD)
to display pictures at full screen.
You can view picture files, resources or the clipboard,
zoom in and out, move around and take screen shots.
JPEGtoPICT converts all JPEG files in a folder to jpeg-compressed
PICT files, which are placed in a new folder.
spider lets you weave your web pages in HyperCard.
You create special, simple stacks in HyperCard
and then convert them to web pages.
All these stacks are intended for use with HyperCard 2.1 or later.
For two of them (trueConvert and spider), you will also need
a newer version of HyperCard Player (available free from Apple
on the internet).
Version 1.03 contains my new web and e-mail addresses
and fixes a bug in the spider stack; otherwise it is
identical to version 1.02.
The spider requires AppleScript and the freeware program
"clip2gif" by Yves Piguet.

Window Tools is a set of scripts which installs in your Home stack.
They create a menu from which you can easily access all your open
stacks, windows and pallettes. You can show and hide windows,
close stacks from the menu and add stacks to a list of stacks
you frequently use. You can also re-open closed stacks by simply
selecting its name from the Window Tools menu. Window Tools is
simply indispensable when it is installed!

Subject: xmover.hqx
XMover is a tool for easy drag-and-drop installation of resources (XCMDs,
XFCNs, icons, sounds, whatever) into HyperCard stacks. It is oriented
towards dealing with resources where the names are important, not the ID
numbers; to this end, it automatically renumbers resources to avoid ID
conflicts.
New in this release are the inclusion of a couple of AppleScript "droplets"
to allow opening of resource files directly from the Finder, along with the
"Register" application from Kagi Shareware. This means I can now receive
payments via credit card.
Please replace the existing file info-mac/dev/card/xmover.hqx with this one.
Thank you.

This stack and the XTernals in it are cool-ware. If you like them or if
you use then in your own stacks, please send me something cool. Send me
