- Hi,'
- I'm attempting to help someone who is working with OracleCard, and I have
- little experience with it myself. It appears to be very similar in
- its syntax and structure to Hypercard, but does anyone know if HyperCard
- XCMDs can be installed into OracleCard stacks?
- AND...if they can be....does anyone know of an XCMD that will truely
- emulate typing at the keyboard? The *Card "type" command doesnt seem
- to send the simulated keystrokes to the system, but holds them within
- itself. The reason for wanting this is that we are trying to make OracleCard
- activate a QuicKeys sequence from within a script.
-
- Please respond via email, though I will monitor this group for a while
- in case responses show up here.
- Thanks much!
