Dan Shafer made the statement in his keynote that one of the cool
things
about Hypercard was that it came with example stacks that let you
see what
it could do and look under the hood. If Rev is going to make real
money and
thrive, it has to appeal to customers outside the professional
developers.
With that in mind, could one of the 'contest' areas be making the
original
collection of stacks from Apple into Rev stacks that might include
a section
on 'how they did that'? Of course, beyond that, many of the
powerful things
you could do with Rev today.
HyperCard came with 2 really useful stacks: Readymade Fields &
ReadyMade Buttons.
These gave working examples of neat things that could be copied &
pasted into your own stacks so get you doing stuff early in the
learning process.
I would like to see a Revolution Home stack which like RevOnline,
could open optionally on startup. It would contain buttons linking to
the docs, tutorials, revonline, web sites and also contain a
selection of simple objects ready to use.
Cheers,
Sarah
