Jon,

I'm one of those that just play with Rev. Dreamcard. Being retired I have no desire to go commercial with any of my projects.

I'm a long, long, time programmer and HyperCard user and "devotee". I've often said "If I could have only one program on my Mac, it would be HyperCard".

I've switched to Rev. Dreamcard because HyperCard's days are numbered on Macs. I'm still running OS 9 (and dragging my feet as long as possible on converting to OS X), but do need to convert some of my H/C stacks over to a more current and evolving  application. 

I briefly tried SuperCard and didn't like it - particularly their H/C conversion procedure and resulting code. I've found Rev. much more to my type programming approach than SuperCard, and an easier to use H/C stack conversion procedure and resulting code. 

Plus I'm starting to get very comfortable with Transcript as I learn more. I find this mail-list extremely helpful with problems i encounter during my Rev. Dreamcard "newbee" phase.

Also right now I'm seeing what I can initiate toward forming Rev. User Groups (RUGs) in the USA.

Trust the above is helpful.

TAKE CARE,
Ralph
