I also have a stack-exporting system, similar to what
you are both describing above. It exports the scripts,
and all of the properties of all of the objects, too.
In its present state, my system creates the equivalent
of HyperCard's containment hierarchy by creating the
corresponding Mac HFS folders, and filling them with
one file of properties for each object contained. The
file format of my properties-files is:
propertyName & tab & propertyValue & return
I also have a system to IMPORT stack data from a Mac
HFS like the above, in order to recreate the HC stack
from scratch.
My export and import systems do not handle pictures
though. For that, we could use the handlers and
external(s) that Uli has suggested. Either way, it's a
cinch to export stacks from HC's file-format to a new
file-format of our own design. As long as we have an
operational instance of HyperCard, as Uli pointed out.
