Hello all,
Version 1.0 of the educational software I'm making (Dutch spelling) is
complete now, and I'm going to a publisher. Before, I've had a talk with a
critical person who had critical questions about the software. Mostly, he
had questions about MetaCard. Could you please help me, because the
publisher may pose this questions also?
1. What is MetaCard? Never heard of it, and now I have seen it, it looks
like a macro language to me. I think it has too less possibilities for
professional software, hasn't it?
My opinion: MetaCard is a great Object Oriented tool in which you can
program quite 'deep' things like working in the registry or writing to COM
ports.
My question: Are there examples of software made in MetaCard which were a
success?
2. In case that you have a accident, can someone else take over easily the
development of the software? Is it possible to 'print' the program and it's
cross references? How many MetaCard programmers are there (in the
Netherlands)? Can he or she trust on support of the MetaCard company?
My opinion: There are much HyperCard programmers in Holland, but...
My question: Is there a printstack tool? Is there a list of MetaCard
programmers over the world? How easy is it to jump from HyperCard to
MetaCard?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Sjoerd Op 't Land
