>(1) What is the difference between Hypercard 1.2 and 1.2.1?

From what I've been able to find out, bug fixes to HyperCard. Anyone have a
canonical list?

>(2) Which is the more recent and/or more reliable version of ResEdit:
>     1.2d2 or 1.2a1?

The 'd' implies a development, or internal version. The 'a' implies an
alpha, or limited internal/external test release. So, in theory, the 'a'
version is less bug ridden and further along in development than the 'd'
one is.

Of course, I'm not sure I'd talk too loudly about getting development or
alpha versions of things, since Apple's been getting more and more freaked
about software leaks (and I don't blame them...)
