                       in cooperation with

                H Y P E R    Q U A R T E R L Y

Beginning in April we will begin shipping a new disk-based subscription,
with new issues appearing every three months. Each issue (two disks) will
contain innovative new stacks and scripts, XCMDs and XFCNs, icons, art,
news and tutorials.

HyperCard IIGS, which is part of the Apple IIGS System Software, is an
invaluable resource for Apple IIGS owners. But many folks don't know how
useful and fun it can be. Sign up for Hyper Quarterly and you'll find out.

In addition to the talents of Hangtime and Gareth Jones, we will be joined
by Josh Calvin, Brian Gillespie and Ryan Suenaga in presenting stacks and
info for your use and pleasure. Other IIGS HyperCard users are welcome to
submit stacks for publication (yes, we'll pay!).

The first issue is shaping up now and includes the following stacks:

A.La.Carte by Hangtime, An innovative stack for rapidly creating 
                        custom menus for stacks. Type in the menu
                        names, assign command key equivalents and
                        menu item actions and install.

TZ.Rolodex by Hangtime,  HyperCard ships with an address book, but
                        Hangtime's effort, aside from having the 
                        polished look he is famous for, lets you 
                        keep notes, view the correct time for the
                        individual you're currently looking at, and
                        lets you sort the stack by name.

PostScripter by Gareth Jones, Want fantastic looking graphics for
                        your desktop publishing efforts, but stymied
                        by a lack of good conversion tools for 320
                        color images. No longer! Just print a 320
                        image to disk as a postscript file with the
                        LaserWriter driver, and use this stack to
                        re-size and re-position the image anywhere
                        on the page, then download to your PostScript
                        laser printer with your favorite app (dlps,
                        LaserBeam, SendPS, ProTERM).

HC.Word by Steve Cavanaugh, Need to dash off a quick note while work-
        & Gareth Jones  ing in HyperCard? This text editor stack lets
                        you do that, but can also read and write text
                        files, encode with HTML, let you perform fast
                        Finds for words in any documents you have in
                        the stack, and can GSify text by automatical-
                        adding in the ligatures, em dashes and other
                        "high ASCII" characters.

Other stacks likely to appear include a Lynx bookmark manager, a stack
with scripts and scripted buttons for copy and paste into your own
projects, and more.
