Dear LanguageHeads,


I submitted lists of languages I use, but somehow they didn't
make it on the list.  I don't know why, but I will list
it here with some explaination (little to none actually).

For one, I use Self, a language that is really no longer
an experimental language.  I do NOT use it for real
projects, but instead do prototyping in it.  Somewhat
like SmallTalk in syntax.  Take a look at

	self.stanford.edu:/self

with anonymous ftp.

As for the claim that Craftman is the scripting equivalent
to HyperCard on NeXTstep is stretching this kind of statement
to the limit.  I have been involved and using HyperCube for the
past 1.75 years and would definitely call HYPERCUBE the equivalent
to HyperCard, but then it has so much more that this statement
would be understating the power of HyperCube.  As for the language
it uses, CubeTalk...  It is 100% compatible with HyperTalk, because
HyperCube imports HIFF files right from HyperCard
and runs them.  It is neat and nifty and kinda cool.  Of course
I am biased and rightfully so. ;')  Hypercube information can
be had from sending mail to <mishelle@thoughtful.com>, or <doug@...>.
