I've created some programs for students with disabilities. At first I
circulated them with the the Mac and Pc players. It was easy to script
a 'New' that copied the stack and cleared all text and audioClips. The
'Save as' made a copied of the stack. Both renamed the new stack.
Schools with pc's need them to run from the startup menu since the
students can't drag them onto the player. I made them standalones but
now I don't know the proper way or logic or even an intelligent way to
ask the question of duplicating them. The Mac version is in a package,
the pc is in a folder with an externals folder, the slpashstack and
the real stack. I need to keep the audio in the stacks to make it
easier for students to transport their work from home to school and
back. Would I use the copyFolder command and save it to the same level/
folder as the original? I have them on my On-Rev Server website at www.billziegler.com
. The two I'm having trouble with, when turned into standalones, are
the "ReportCards MacPC" and "Just Say It".
I couldn't find anything in the archives. If there is an old post or a
tutorial in detail I could start with that.
Thanks in advanced
