HyperCard Compatibilty
« on: December 14, 2011, 03:00:12 AM »
First time using HyperNext, I am wondering if it can open HyperCard files because their programming languages are so similar?

Hi

Unfortunately HyperCard can't understand HyperCard stacks etc because it doesn't support HyperCard's internal messaging hierarchy and HyperCard has a more sophisticated parser.

Some HyperNext users have successfully converted HyperCard stacks/programs but it needs doing on a script line by line basis.
