Hi Richard and all,

If you had a Home stack in Rev like there was in HyperCard, what would
you use it for?
Keep in mind that Rev is a different beast than HC, so let your
imagination run wild: What would you expect to see in a Rev Home
stack?
In older times, I have provided to my readers in MacWorld French
edition a 'replacement' home stack for HC:
In color and working mostly with drag and drop, it added a lot of
possibilities compared to the regular 'Home Stack'.
But all this is a question of market:
As for me, I don't need any home stack but I understand well that, in
some fields (beginners, education, etc.), such a beast would be welcome.
Actually it's easy to make one as a plugin loaded at startup anyone
could put out or not :-)
It could display different things according to a kind of user level
from a simple stack launcher to a lib and plugin manager, environment
info and much more.
The stacks launcher would includes presentation stacks, videos and
templates for beginners as well as more sophisticated stuff about
plugins, building externals, etc. according to the user level chosen.
In addition, and it did not existed in HC of course, internet links
should be included.
As for RevOnline, it would be accessible in all cases directly or
from the home stack but contents showed should reflect the user level.
Actually it could receive the 'Getting Started' and the user guide
parts of the current help, the help stack being limited to the
dictionary/glossary, i.e. all things directly related to the vocabulary.
Just my two cents after two minutes thinking...
PS1. Richard: actually the HC engine inserts the Home script as a
back script :-)
PS2. In the 'replacement' home stack for HC I mentioned above, a
section was really appreciated by all users:
"Which vocabulary should I use for..."
Best regards from Paris,
Eric Chatonet.
