Subject: scripting of insert cursor in fld
Date: 28 Jan 1993 00:16:35 GMT
Organization: University of Washington, Seattle
NNTP-Posting-Host: carson.u.washington.edu

I have a stack where I'd like the cursor to be flashing in a field,
and the start-up of a stack.  I've done this successfully before,
but am having trouble this time.  I've used

on openStack
  select line 1 of cd fld "myField"                       
end openStack

as well as "click at the loc of cd fld "myField".  The stack opens
HyperCard and itself, then I see the cursor blink, but only for a 
second, then it disappears.  I've tried typing afterwards, and get
a beep, indicating that the cursor is not in that field.  If I press
the tab key, it then blinks in the field (but scripting this by  
"type tab" does not work.)  The interesting thing is that if I open
this stack from another stack, it works correctly.  I've run message
watcher and variable watcher, but don't see anything of interest.  The
stack has very little else in it at this point, and I've commented out
just about everything--to no avail.  Hints?

Subject: Matching quotes in fields
Organization: Bell Atlantic Healthcare Systems
Date: Mon, 25 Jan 1993 19:10:57 GMT


I wanted to do input so that generic quote marks would change to left
or right quotes.  I wrote a handler that works o.k., I just wanted to 
know if there was an easier way or if anyone has an especially slick method.
Basically, if the quote key is hit, I get the current selected chunk,
subtract to get the previous character, if it's a space or empty (to take
care of the 1st character in the string), use the left quote, otherwise
use the right quote.

If I put the handler in the background instead of in the field, it changes
generic quotes in the message box, which isn't very desirable.

Some of the currently available but not new model macs may still be shipping  
with Hypercard. Of course, you have to $pend more than buying the package...
Someone posted that their CD player came with a CD that had Hypercard on it so  
you might try something like that. I don't think it's available for FTP(?) so  
you'll probably have to break down and spend something.

     I'm trying to use HyperCard 2.1 to prototype an interface to an 
AppleEvent-driver background application, and I'm running into problems.
I'd been told that HyperCard could send and receive arbitrary AppleEvents
(events with multiple parameters stored under various keywords), and I can see
from the documentation how I would go about receiving such events (using an
appleEvent handler, requesting data by keyword), but I don't see any mention
of how to construct such multiple-keyword AppleEvents to send to other
applications.  Do I need to use an XCMD or XFCN for this, and if so could
someone point me towards one?
     (For those of you familiar with Frontier's AppleEvent syntax, here's an
example of the sort of event I need to be able to send: appleEvent('CFB0',
'MEZZ','srch','----',258,'scom','like','sval',"%in%",'show',257,'max#',500,
'sess',0).  I also need to be able to receive and get information from the
reply event.)

The XCMDs to play Director movies from HyperCard come with Director. Or
you can save the movie as a Projector (self-standing app) and use
HyperCard's "open" command to play it from within HyperCard.

Subject: Multi-part field OR selecting multiple fields
Organization: Netcom - Online Communication Services  (408 241-9760 guest) 
Date: Sun, 24 Jan 1993 00:42:24 GMT

I am building a stack that needs to present information in a table 
format.  For example:

--------------------------
| <text> | <num> | <num> |
| <text> | <num> | <num> |
| <text> | <num> | <num> |
--------------------------

Now the only way that I know how to do this with HyperCard is to have
3 transparent fields and draw some lines between them.  This works fine
until you want to select a line from this table - HyperCard won't allow
you to select lines from more than one field at one time.  I want to be
able to select lines so that I can cut/copy/past entire lines at a time.

So ... does anyone know of a PD or commercial XCMD that implements
a table view.  I envision this XCMD doing one of two things:

- implement a field that allows multiple items of data to be placed in
  a line such that each item starts at some tab boundary.

OR

- implement a field type that allows more than one field line to be
  selected at the same time.

Thanks for any info or pointers.

I have an XFCN:
GetStarInfo(ResType)   Returns list of resource names of given type

You would have to run it for each type (snd,ICON,CURS,XFCN,XCMD,clut)
or I could modify it to do all 6. It is effectively 16 lines of code and is
set to allocate 10k for the list. If you have more resources, let me know.
Note: it returns the names only, the IDs weren't important for my needs.
Again, it can be done.

Hey, another quick question about AE's and HC here:

So, if I should always make sure that the sender and reciever each have
32K free, and the reciever is HC, what is a good way
to make sure 32K is free in hypercard?  It seems to me
I would have to make an XCMD that was called every idle to make sure
enough memory is free in HC.

Or is there a better way?

Okay -- just loking at HC script language guide, and read about
FreeSize.  It says:

"
Use the FreeSize property to determine the amount of free space
of the specified stack in bytes.
 ....

The freeSize property can only be changed by choosing compact stack
from the file menu.

"

So how can I make sure HC is able to accept my AE?

I am posting this to comp.sys.mac.hypercard and
mailing copies to d88-jwa@nada.kth.se and trap!frank@csn.org
(frank vernon) and  jpugh@apple.com

Thank you all for your input -- you have been very helpful.
If there is interest, I will compuend all the info I have learned on this
new (to me) subject.

Please email in return -- It is easier for me.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Apple's HD SC Setup only works with drives shipped by Apple. This is 
extremely irritating and causes enormous hassles trying to support many 
Macs in an institutional setting, especially now that Apple is out of the 
add-on drive market. There is no [good] reason for this; after all, if 
Apple's A/UX can support third-party drives, so can the MacOS.

I don't know of any problems with 5.0, although there was a patch put out
to bring it up to 5.0a (I don't recall what it fixes).  As far as I know,
5.1a works fine.

No, commercial. I got it bundled with a tape drive, so I didn't 
pay for it *per se*, but I did shell out quite a bit for the
drive, so I may have been paying for some of Retrospect.

I'm not aware of a Retrospect Lite...
