HyperCard was my introduction to AppleScript. I thought it was a lot of
fun to work with. One day, I was looking at the Language At A Glance
stack and realized that I just had to dabble with AppleScript.
Unfortunately, I haven't been as inclined to dabble with HyperCard after
hearing that Apple doesn't want to support it any longer. After getting
all my important stuff out of the stacks I had created, I haven't
bothered to think about creating anything new with HC for a couple of
years now. It's just another of the too many apps I invested in that has
been abandoned. If I were clairvoyant, I could have saved myself a lot of
money on apps that I no longer use.
