Reposted for someone without news access; please reply by mail to cztf@musica.mcgill.ca. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Request for information: DOS Hypertext applications Does anybody out there know of a program, shareware or commercial, that can do hypertext and support a bit of animation at the same time? I've tried Alchemy Mindworks' Storyteller, which would be fine except no animation support, no shelling to dos for freestanding animations, and will not work from the keyboard; I've tried sandwiching it into IBM Storyboard, which supports enough animation and can call Storyteller from within its own Storyteller (yes, they use the same name for one of the Storyboard Live sub-modules), but thereby limits the navigational structure; IBM Storyboard cannot be used on its own as the material is 90% text and storing it as bitmaps is of course impractical; and before you say "Toolbook" I should mention that I don't want this to run under Windows because the target users have a wide variety of not-so-recent computers... Any advice would be greatly apreciated! Thanks. Mark Morgenstern, cztf@musica.mcgill.ca (514) 937-5285
