As a HyperCard User, you've come to rely on a tool that can be whatever you need. Simple, powerful, and robust. But let's face it, if you wish to continue to rely on it, you are stuck with a five year old system.

What if there was a way to migrate your existing HyperCard stacks to run on Apple's latest and greatest Macs, all in an environment just as simple and robust, yet with even more power. The fact is that there is simply no better alternative than SuperCard.

As a HyperCard user, you'll feel right at home in SuperCard. Cards and Backgrounds just as in HyperCard. Buttons and Fields as well. Its scripting language (SuperTalk) is over 80% compatible with your existing HyperTalk scripts. In fact, SuperTalk is essentially a super-set of HyperTalk, expanded with hundreds of new words for added functionality and power.

SuperCard also expands on the graphic nature of HyperCard. Color paint and draw tools, the ability to import color graphics from a wide variety of formats (including PNG, JPEG, TIFF, GIF, and native PhotoShop files), and to script their size, location, and behavior just like buttons.

You'll also find a ton of interface enhancements including support for multiple windows (including floating palettes and modal dialogs), each with their own backgrounds and cards; Mac OS X themed buttons, controls, and indicators; and object based menus and menu items. Your stacks can now escape the dated look and feel of HyperCard and become a thing of beauty.

But even with its additional features, SuperCard remains HyperCard's closest cousin. Most experienced HyperCard users can migrate their stacks to SuperCard in a matter of hours.

So, if the thought of bringing your old stacks up to date appeals to you, please take a few moments to investigate the other topics in this section. We think you'll agree your stacks can be better than ever in SuperCard.
