They announced the posting of a "new" collection of HyperCard externals to /info-mac/card/xcmd. After a long download at 2400 baud, this turned out to be the same Developer's Stack v.1.3r that had been archived in /info-mac/card. Holy wasted bandwidth, Batman! This prompted me to look back through my collection of must-have HyperCard developer's utilities and ask "Where are they now?." Here is a quick summary: PathName/FileName SiteName / IP number ----------------- -------------------- Developer Stack v.1.3r sumex-aim.stanford.edu /info-mac/card/xcmd/developer-stack.hqx [36.44.0.6] Dartmouth XCMDs v.3.4.3 dartvax.dartmouth.edu /pub/mac/DXCMDs3.4.3.sit.hqx [129.170.16.4] Support Tools eXternals v.1.2.5 isca.uiowa.edu /mac/infomac/cardxcmd/support-externals-125.sea [28.255.19.233] [large collection of stacks and externals] wuarchive.wustl.edu /pub/mirrors/macintosh/hc [128.252.135.4] Be sure to poke around, particularly on isca.uiowa.edu and wuarchive.wustl.edu. These sites archive many useful stacks that never make it to the better-known ftp archives. Other sites with HC stuff, for completeness: mac.archive.umich.edu [141.211.165.34] rascal.ics.utexas.edu [128.83.138.20] Please see your sysadmin or the "Frequently Asked Questions" posting in comp.sys.mac.announce if you have questions about anonymous ftp. -- Bill (johnston@minnie.me.udel.edu)
