There is a GOOD book out called "The Complete Hypercard Handbook" by Danny
Goodman. About 700 pages, $29.95. ISBN is 0-553-34391-2, and it is from
Bantam Computer Books. Computerware has them for $21 and change. it'll tell
you more than you could ever wish to know about Hypercard, except for XCMD
programming, and there is a supplemental document out from apple that deals
with that (one of these minutes I ought to package that up and get it to
comp.binaries.mac).
