Cards may seem more "natural" to someone coming from HyperCard because with HC you had no choice: it had neither arrays nor custom properties to store them in, and the built-in sort command only worked on cards; you had to use an external for anything else.

Aw, it isn't *that* bad. You can sort containers in HC; as a matter of fact, Rev's "sort" command is taken verbatim from HyperCard. "Sort lines of..." "sort words of..." etc. Compatibility and all.

My bad. I must have been living in the past -- remember, I moved to SuperCard the day it was release in May '89.


If HC had a sort command then why were there so many sort externals floating around?
