Scott,

You can download a 68K version of MC 2.4.2 (2.4.3 is currently in development and doesn't have an 68K version yet) from the MetaCard FTP site:

ftp://ftp.metacard.com/MetaCard/

It's called "MacOS68K.sit".

  Well, I would like to be able to open it on a Mac so that it doesn't strip of the resource fork and moves all of that stuff to the data fork.  Then I would move it over to Windows to finish converting it.

Just make sure you choose the "all files" filter in the Open dialog box from within MC. It'll strip off the resource fork, but you can't use that in Windows anyway.

  > Yes, Basilisk II is a Mac emulator for PC's. I did try downloading MetaCard and running it, but I can't get it to work. Basilisk II emualtes a 68k Mac, and the current MetaCard download does not have a 68k engine. Does anyone have any idea where I could download MetaCard with a 68k engine? What I am trying to do here is port some HyperCard stacks to Windows.
