Oh, I saw a hypercard on mac emulator for linux so
https://github.com/jedahan/hypermac https://github.com/jedahan/hypermac
have a lot of fun!

Eric, thanks for the pointer. I'd like to try playing with it,
but I don't understand github. What do I download from your
linked page to run the emulator on OSX?

I don't know. After Steve killed hypercard, the newton and macOS 9, I switched to linux. If I am gonna have a linux backend and terminal anyway wtf do i need an overpriced bs frontend for?
Sorry.
I guess I'm glad he sold a bunch of overpriced ipods and tablets lol.

I don't use Mac, so I can't test this (I use Linux, like Eric) but I do
know GitHub.

On the upper right-hand side of the page there is a green "Clone or
download" button. Clicking this reveals an menu which has an option
"Download Zip". Extract this zip, then run the app "Mini vMac".

Aha! That did it. Not sure how useful it will be, but it sure is
nostalgic!!!

Thanks.
