<<I also think it should be kept as modular as possible. i.e. instead of

having inbuilt HyperTalk commands they could be all XCMD's. this way
even end users can customize OpenCard to their hearts delight. It also
means standalones would only need to include the commands it uses. Large

standalones is the problem with all multimedia apps i.e. Director,
MetaCard, SuperCard and HyperCard.>>

        That's a great idea, but I'm concerned about the overhead
involved with
calling an external all the time, perhaps we should have a special thing
like
"OCMD" that will be loaded upon opening the stack (only loaded into
memory,
not ran as to prevent autostart viruses). Important commands will be
non-
pergeable, and more essential commands like PUT and REPEAT will have to
be
built in.
