Abstract

The Gloor/Dynes hypertext engine [Glo93b] has been developed as a hypertext shell on the Macintosh in HyperCard extended by XCMDs in C [Win90] (Figure II.1). It has been used for various hypertext projects, among others for the Animated Algorithms project and the DAGS multimedia proceedings series described later in the book. It embodies most of the popular concepts found in Web browsers on a stand-alone platform but also offers some features not com­monly found in hypertext systems.
