HyperCard Basics

[Richmond]

Having what my wife, all too accurately, terms "A crawl through your 
sh*t" [meaning digging through my self-reproducing piles of computer 
components, converters, second-hand hard drives and so on] I came upon 
[buried very deep indeed] a little book called
'HyperCard Basics'. How that booklet managed to get from Carbondale, 
Illinois, via Saudi Arabia, The UAE and Scotland to Bulgaria escapes me.

So; opened the thing for the first time since about 1994 and started 
reading:

Sorting Cards

The Sort by Name command in the Utilities menu lets you arrange cards 
alphabetically by either
first or last name.

I wonder how one does that in Livecode?

Searching for text

1. Choose Find from the Go menu.

The Recent command

AS you go from card to card and stack to stack, HyperCard
automatically keeps a record of where you've been. The Recent
command in the Go menu shows (in miniature) the card you
have looked at, up to the last 42.

Certainly View/Recent does not do that.

Quite fin reading that.
