Oh, alright.
Oh, and a suggestion...how about somehow getting a Windows version of the stack done? Sometimes I don't want to have to wrestle with the site...
I thought you said there was a way of viewing HyperCard stacks on Windows. I don't have the tools to develop for Windows except for completely text-based programs, but if someone else out there wants to make a Windows version of it they're welcome to. If I'm going to re-write the stack at the moment, it will be to make a version which runs natively in Mac OS X.
If you really want a crude text-based version of the stack for Windows, it probably wouldn't take an enormous amount of time for me to make, but it would be a low-priority project. The finished product would be able to be compiled for other operating systems such as Linux, but the text interface would be reminiscent of MS DOS. I really would rather not do it, because someone with the tools to write Windoze GUI programs could make a version with a much nicer interface in not much more time. If you happen to have a web server on your computer which can run CGIs, you could probably use the 'online stack' interface without me having to change much of the code at all. But I wouldn't be able to test it.
But you don't want that... C'mon, admit it, you want a Mac. :^)
