PythonCard FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is PythonCard?
  PythonCard is designed to be an application development framework for
use by everybody. Its purpose and goal is ease of use and increasing
productivity. From the first time to developer to the veteran coder who
knows a dozen languages, PythonCard is designed to allow you to quickly
and easily design and build fully functioning applications with a
graphical user interface.

What is the similarity between PythonCard and HyperCard?
  The PythonCard project is using HyperCard for inspiration. The first
goal is to produce a framework. We already have runtime tools
(Message Watcher, Property Editor, Shell) and a layout editor
(resourceEditor sample), but we don't have an environment yet. You can
use the resourceEditor sample to build layouts for your applications.

Have any programs been written with PythonCard?
  Yes. For a list of the samples that have been built with PythonCard
and some screenshots of them in action go to:

A description of each sample is included in the readme.txt file in each
sample directory.

  Yes
