It was to be free, but it was never completed. Two years or more went by
while he tinkered with it and he eventually abandoned it. This happened at
least ten years ago or more, and he has since left the community and taken
down the project.

You write «Why you should "pick on me" in regard to trying to convert stuff
that must be, at the very least,
20 years out of date I don't know.» If I have bothered you you must excuse me.
It surely wasn’t my intention. I must have mistaken your name for another.

Hi Ingar,
Since last year, I am using Livecode in Mac,
Linux and Windows (and running stacks
on Android 2.3 and 4.0.1).
Previously, I have run Livecode only
on windows, much later on linux,
then on android and only since last
year on mac osx. (ios and raspberry pi
are in my plans too)
Livecode
All of you again! I’m truly thankful and give it a try!

Yes, and I will reiterate that Hypercard was optimized to use cards as records
in a database. Livecode is not. If your apps are of this nature, you will want
to move the data in your cards to some other storage method, then have one card

Hello all,
In LC 6.7.11 it is possible to open a HC stack. This feature has broken in
LC 7+. So you can try to:
1. Make a copy of your HC stack
2. Open it in LC 6.7.11
3. Then save it in LC 6.7.11.
Hopefully, after step 3, you should be able to open it in LC 9.
Best,

Someone on the HC list did just that many years ago using MC. I don't think
he ever finished it though, it turned out to be a lot of work and there was
little interest by then.

One could make HC's interface in LC. Anyone game?

Hello, Devin!
As far as I know, LC includes all the scripted paint commands that HC had,
and adds native color besides. The stacks I've imported that used painting
commands worked with few changes, mostly only needing to slow them down due
to LC's faster engine and more modern CPUs.

"That can't be done" wins always, because the only limit for LC is the sky
(more exactly, sadly, the sky below the 65535-limit for all coordinates).
But there's a lot of features that are not

I recognize the importance of asking adequate questions. I don’t know if the
one about MacPaint (MP) belongs to that group. But I use MP all the time with
SheepShaver and believe that the partial scriptability of MP perhaps was HC’s
greatest contribution to interactive use of words and images
Livecode is a program for creating programs.
MacPaint is a program for creating images that as far as I know ran on 68K
macs. Not sure it ever ran on PPC Macs. Not sure if MacPaint images can import
into Livecode.
Asking if MacPaint works in LC doesn’t make sense to me.

I doubt it. IIRC the format was directly dependent on QuickDraw - from

Porting/opening Hypercard stacks is a convenience. The primary issue is that
Hypercard was optimized to index every text of every card in a stack to make
finding information easier. New records? New cards.
Livecode? Not so much. In fact, not at all. There will be
Hello, André,
I hope you still remember that we met in Las Vegas. I still use HyperCard and
wonder if it has become easier to port HC-stacks to LiveCode? Do you know if
there are any apps for that? And if not, would it be difficult to write them?
