+ 0 - 0 | § Chilton's Xs

Lorenz Tschudi has produced a SuperCard Project that checks Chilton's web pages, list externals, there descriptions and downloads them. Unstuffs them too. Very nice.

A simple onscreen set of SuperCard Rulers.
Benifits from Chilton's setWindowAlpha external which allows the rulers to be transparent.
Chilton has been keeping up the 'external a day' routine, there are now 8 at DevHq SuperCard Externals which is a temporary url.

+ 0 - 0 | § ModuloPi

I noted the release of this a few entries ago, and there has been some discussion about the Runtime Editor on the SuperCard List. MPI has a ton of features not present in the RTE. I opened most of the palettes in MPI and took a Screenshot(in a new window). I had to set my monitor to 1280x960 to get them all in, so it is a big jpg.
The most important part of MPI is the Property Inspector, a much improved version of the one that ships with SuperCard Stéphane Leys was responsible for both the RTE inspector and MPI.
The more I use it the more impressed I am. There are Modules for almost every thing. The help is almost universal, shift click on a label or a button, or shift select a menu and if the item is in the SuperCard Language guide, the SLG pops up at the right entry.

+ 0 - 0 | § worldTime.proj

I have added another simple project to the Simple_Guides.proj set up. worldTime.proj uses the digiposs web services World Time web service to find out what time it is in other parts of the world.

An example of using AppleScript in SuperCard to use a webservice.

+ 0 - 0 | § Rommy Robot Version 3 for OS X

I have started working on the next version of Rommy Robot, hopeefully this will be a much better application than previous versions more information, and screenshots and a contact emal for Beta testers.

+ 0 - 0 | § DevHQ SuperCard Externals

DevHQ SuperCard Externals
says Chilton:
"Once a day, every day, for an entire year, I will add one external to this page, or update an existing external on this page. After that, I will probably try that 'sleep' thing I hear is all the rage these days. All externals here are free, and have no strings attached for commercial use.
The site will move to devHQ.com some time in the future.
the first 2 externals are http 1.2 and Stuff a ram based database.
Fantastic stuff from Chilton, to whom the SC community owes a lot.

+ 0 - 0 | § SuperCard 4.1.2b2

SuperCard 4 Beta Program
SuperCard 4.1.2b2 available, mostly fixes for panther appearance problems.

+ 0 - 0 | § ModuloPI

Version 1.4 of ModuloPI the alternative Runtime Editor for SuperCard is out.
Many improvments my favourites include:
Clicking on labels and button on mpi palettes takes you to the SuperCard Language Guide contextually. This makes MPI the ideal tools for learning SuperCard and its language.
Template windows for new projects.
The module popup shows the F-Keys that are associated with the module in the preference.
Creating a text grc with command key down keeps the draw text tool instead of selecting the object with the pointer tool (I think I requested that one:))

+ 0 - 0 | § Simple_Guides.proj version 0.2

Simple_Guides.proj
Simple_Guides.proj is a SuperCard project that lists and downloads other SuperCard projects from a server.
The projects are an assortment of simple examples and SuperCard guides. Included in the projects to download are updates of the Movie Test and Simple CURL projects that are in the Users Samples folder that shipped with SuperCard.

+ 0 - 0 | § XCMDs for SuperCard - Matteo Varisco

XCMDs for SuperCard - Matteo Varisco a collection of 43 externals for SC, free for personal use. Many thanks to Matteo.

+ 0 - 0 | § Vortex SuperCard demos

Index of /storage/supercard at the Vortex.
Keith Martin has added some SC 4 demos to the vortex:
Picture Resizer.project demos resizing pictureData
SC and Hex Colours does what is says in it's name.
Virtual Stickers.project Two games for young children in one they move graphics around to rearange a picturee, the other is a virtual fuzzy felt game.

+ 0 - 0 | § Halloween Poems downloads

I released Halloween Poems 1.1 on the 11th of October. I didn't advertise much, just here and Version Tracker(a couple of comments).
According to my logs it has had 915 downloads since then. I also have a SuperCard Player version. In the same peroid it got 23 downloads. This seem a pity to me, and some sort of indication of the popularity of SC player.
