I have been playing with HyperCard on a Mac ][ (1meg, 40M hard disk,
Apple Color card - 8bits, and Apple monitor, Finder 6.0 and System 4.2).
I noticed that the visual effects on HyperCard (e.g., fade,
zoom, etc.) do not work if the Color is on with more than 
two colors.  If I use B&W or two colors the visual effects work.  
Is this a (known) bug, or I am doing something wrong?  I looked
at the HyperTalk scripts and the visual effect commands are
there, but they seem to be ignored.

Any comments about how much of the existing Mac sofware runs on
the Mac ][?
