    iHUG should take a look at Apple's a**. Much more powerful, yet not much more difficult to learn.

    HyperCard v. AppleScript

    HyperCard and AppleScript were quite different environments. HyperCard is more self-contained; AppleScript reaches out system-wide to control other apps.

    There was never really a turf war between them, and little reason to suppose Apple dropped one in favor of the other (other than for resource-personnel reasons).

    There are RUMORS -- and possibly wild(card) rumors at that -- that Apple will indeed Carbonize HyperCard.

    This rumor emanated from France, where it is rumored (lots of rumors here!) that Renault, the innovative car maker, has a vast inventory system based on HyperCard, and that a Carbonized product would be key to getting them to Mac OS X...

    Hypercard and Applescript

    Hypercard let you choose a scripting language - you could use Applescript in it as well as Hypertalk. It was really powerful that way - I wrote an instant messanger app in it once :)
