What QT effects substack are you referring to?

MetaCard is loading and intializing QT (just like it has to do before
using player objects).

Or do:
get qteffects()

MetaCard supports the wipeid enum in each of those effects.
Anyone have a design for passing an unlimited number of parameters, each
of different type to the visual effect command?

The file format used by Save and Load is undocumented, so you would have
to instruct the user to load the file using the dialog if it was
supported..
