Can anyone in Hypercard land tell me if I will be able to run a stand alone program in HC 2.3 in System 10.2 - I am a neophyte with programming, however, I...
Dear HyperCard users, It is a pleasure to be able to announce Quibble Archives Browser 1.0. From now on, QAB is publicly available. Quibble Archives Browser...
I recently got a Mac with OS 9.0.4 and updated my HP driver for my Deskwriter 600. Printer works fine now, but my hypercard script for a printing button...
Hi Marc, What does the script do now? Does it print anything at all? I tried it with MacOS 9.2.2 and HC 2.4.1 and it seems to work fine. I don't know of a...
I have Windowscript 1.5 and would like to upgrade to version 1.6 but it seem Royal Software is closed down. Does anyone know how to contact Ro Nagy of Royal...
Royal Software is concentrating on externals for Revolution, now. Although they haven't been very active during the past years, they have not closed down...
The script seems fine. What happens if you delete the "open printing" and "close Printing" commands? They are not really needed since you are navigating...
Mark, Thanks for taking interest in my difficulty. The scipt prints nothing at all. When I click the button, a dialog box flashes for an instant. It seems...
Thanks Craig for taking an interest in my problem. Yes, the print command by itself works. If I type "Print Card" into the message box and hit return, it will...
I am forwarding this to the HC mail list. You may want to go there and see what turns up Go to http://groups.yahoo.com/ and enter "HyperCard" in the search box...
Hi Marc, Apparently, this is a driver issue and not a HyperCard issue. Send a bug report to HP and tell them that their driver is still flawed. Like any...
Thanks Mark, Yes, I agree that it must be the driver. HP's site is not much help though. I sent an e-mail, but to do it, I had to click through quite a few...
People do have problems with printer drivers, every now and then. Me too, using a StyleWriter II driver. It kept freezing my iMac. The solution was to use the...
Well Mark, I have resorted to using the older driver when I need to print with the "open printing" script. The reason I don't like to do that is that the...
If hardware comes with such bad drivers, you'd better choose different hardware. Can't you make a network with an older computer and write a script to remotely...
Hi again, Perhaps, searching the Quibble Arhives for the search string "print driver dialog epson stylus color" will give you a few ideas. If it doesn't solve...
I change drivers all the time under script control. Works like a charm. Rinaldi has one, called "Chooser" but i simply create a desktop printer for each of my,...
Thanks Mark. I will try to find out about and locate the Quibble archives. As for networking to an older Mac, that would be more difficult than switching...
Craig, Are you saying there is a hypertalk command which will change the chooser for me? Is it something like "print with [application]" where the application ...
... Basically, you do something like this: open application "Macintosh HD:Desktop Folder:LaserWriter 8" Then go ahead and print. (Replace Macintosh HD with the...
No, that's not what Craig meant to say. He said: there is an external called Chooser. Use this external to change your printer. I believe it is a set of...
Correct. But again, it is simple to change drivers by simply opening a desktop printer. These are applications, and thus are openable by HC. Once this is done,...
Hi Craig, Sorry, I got confused and thought that the external is necessary to open the desktop printer. Apparently and also obviously this is NOT true. Your...
Howdy, I got a question for you all. Here's hoping that there's an answer. I have two text files. I want to automatically replace letters from one text file...
... I think there is a graphical file format that's actually text. If you use GraphicConverter to convert the PICT to PBM (making sure to check ASCII in the...
Howdy, Thanks for the response. I actually found the xCMD in Rinaldi 6.0 (pixelcolor). I ended up just making a pict file that Rinaldi's xCMD (vivez la...
Thanks Guys for all the help. I'll get a chance soon to try the desktop printer solution, and I'll let you know what happened. Marc ... opening a ... openable...
