- ... program or Hypercard stack to archive, track and access saved
- NewsWatcher messages.
-
- I'm not a Hypercard programmer, but it would probably be the most
- straightforward approach.
-
- Usage scenario:
-
- NewsWatcher "save" saves the message to a designated "new message folder".
- The stack searches the "new message folder" for files and creates a new
- "card" for each file/message/post. The file in the "new message folder" is
- deleted once the information has been placed on the "card".
-
- The senders address should be added to a "InterNet directory" with
- newsgroup(s) frequented.
-
- The stack itself would have most of the features which are present in the
- TechNotes stack.
-
- The user should be able to specify indexing categories and be able to link
- individual cards to index categories on the fly.
-
- Etc.
-
- ... Just a wish ...
