RunRev LiveCode

Runrev

RunRev didn´t have a booth at Macworld expo, but hosted a get together for their users in a bar two blocks south of the Moscone center. Much more important: you can use their LiveCode, which started as a Hypercard clone on various UNIX systems, to develop software for Mac, iOS and Android in a way that ordinary users can use it to develop their own software. Highly recommended! Licenses start at less than 100$.

best of Macworld expo

TileStack.jpg
As last year, this was one of the highlights I saw at Macworld expo in San Francisco: TileStack allows you to upload your Hypercard stacks to their webserver, from where you can access it via any modern web browser. Soon they will have local Hypercard players for iPhone and Android, so you can use your stacks on your phone without an internet connection.

MacPlus emulator for the Apple iPhone
Absolutely amazing development: the mini vMac emulator now runs on jailbroken iPhones with OSX 2.X, so I can finally run Hypercard directly on my iPhone!

Hypercard resurrected through the web

Hypercard resurrected through the web
They announced their web based Hypercard last January at Macworld expo in San Francisco, and now a few days before WWDC they are able to deliver their first beta of tilestack. Should even run with the iPhone Safari browser.

Hypercard is back

Hypercard is back
The real sensation of this Macworld expo in the South hall at S-1338: Hypercard online through any modern browser or offline via a Java based client. Hopefully the guys from TileStack follow through with their promises. More on that soon.

MacOS runs in 512*342 on MDApro

MacOS run in 512*342 on MDApro
Since 10/19 a few minutes before midnight, the Mini vMac port by Fabio Concas runs on my T-mobile MDApro in a really usable 512*342 pixels resolution. For me this is the future of computing. A handheld device with wireless connectivity (UMTS, GPRS, WLAN, Bluetooth...), a great OS (MacOS 6.08 or MacOS 7) with thousands of stable and time tested applications (HyperCard...) and flash storage on SD card with a few Gigabytes. There are still some rough edges. Right now no Command, Option and Control keys on the MDApro keyboard work in the MacOS emulation, but even as it is right now, this is so much better than any computing environment, I have ever seen. BIGGEST WOW FACTOR!!!

MacOS running on PocketPC

MacOS on PocketPC Just a few minutes ago, I managed to install MacOS 6.08 on my MDApro/HTCuniversal using the Mini vMac port by Fabio Concas. Right now it is only QVGA (320*240) resolution, but I heard, a new version will support the full VGA resolution pretty soon. That way you would have a truly portable Mac (up to MacOS 7.55). Even Hypercard and MCL (Macintosh Common LISP) should run without problems, then.
