All the 2.0 books from Banatm Electronic Press cover both 1.2.x and 2.0.
This includes the Danny Goodman piece, plus the two books by Winler et. al.,
"Cooking with HyperTalk" and "HyperTalk 2.0: The Book."

True Confession Time:  This note a bit self serving; I'm the co-author of the
last-mentioned book.   :-}
