Some of you may have noticed that HyperCard has somewhat limited printing
capabilities. Printing two cards does not sound like a nice way to print
into full page forms.

Since apple left free printing commands out of HyperCard, I wrote my own
XCMD to do all the necessary things. It currently supports a small subset
of QuickDraw and a number of printing commands.

Are there any people interested in it? Would you still be interested if it
were ShareWare and not Public Domain.

I'll probably post it to Comp.binaries.mac sometime in the future.
I'll also post my own sound converter to the binaries group. It is now a
standalone program (the swci version was posted here) and supports
11 and 22 Khz for both HyperCard and Mac II sounds.
