Thanks for the plug.  But our NNTP reader is not done in HyperCard.  It is
a module of TCP/Connect II. (Telnet (vt241, tek 4014, IBM 3278), FTP client/server,
SNMP agent, NNTP reader, SMTP/POP, SLIP, etc.) All of which is done in C
as a standalone application.  Hope that helps.

There are more and more HyperCard based network frobs coming out.

I believe that all of the actual applications were covered earlier, but there
seems to be a new HyperCard stack coming out everyday that does something
networkish.
