About

Cindy's HyperCard Terminal Emulator is a simple terminal emulation program, created to show HyperCard programmers how to incorporate modem communications into their own products. It uses the free "HyperCard Serial Port Toolkit" produced by Apple, which at last check was available at: ftp://ftp.info.apple.com/Apple.Support.Area/Developer_Services/Tool_Ches t/Development_Platforms/HyperCard_Related/APDA_HyperCard_Toolkits. Download that toolkit in addition to this terminal emulator, to get the full documentation for the serial port XCMDs and XFCNs. Feel free to modify and lift code as desired from this stack. Most of the code is in the Stack script. This is the simplest example I could come up with to illustrate how to use the HyperCard Serial Port Toolkit tools. It is my sincere hope that this stack will come in handy to struggling HyperCard novices out there, and perhaps inspire one to make a graphical user interface BBS out of HyperCard! --Cindy@halcyon.com
