HC: a free HyperCard clone for modern macOS that opens your original stacks
>Hi all! I've been building HC, a free and open-source (MIT) HyperCard clone for today's Macs. Its goal is fidelity: it opens original HyperCard 2.x stacks and runs their HyperTalk scripts unchanged.
>
>The proof I'm proudest of: Apple's own HyperCard Help, HyperTalk Reference and Help Extras run in HC without a single script change.

>Not notarised yet: if macOS says it's "damaged", run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/HC.app once.

>Old stacks that won't open, or behave differently from HyperCard? I'd love to hear about them!
