Such a list could be made... but it seems to me that its usefulness in that
form would be limited, because most of HyperTalk translates directly to
Transcript: for the most part, the former is a subset of the latter. So the
list would be about ten miles long and consist mostly of "same in both" or
"in Transcript but not in HyperCard. ;-)

Have you looked at "About Revolution for HyperCard developers" in the
documentation? It discusses the various differences, though not in the form
of a chart.
