HyperCard 2.1: "Send Message" Error (10/92)

The "Send Message..." error message may appear in the Apple Event Primer
Stack that ships with HyperCard 2.1.

To resolve the problem:

1) Be sure you're at userLevel 5, is running HyperCard 2.1, and System 7.0
or later.

2) Open stack Apple Event Primer.

3) Go to card "Conversing" by clicking the "Chat" button on the first card.

4) Edit the script of card button "Send Message..." by clicking the "Send
Message..." card button while holding the Option and Command keys down.

5) Locate line 20 (empty lines count, too) of the mouseUp handler (bold
down below but not in the stack).

6) Replace "Apple event Primer" in line 20 with "Gossip", so that the line
now reads "send "Gossip" && quote & theNews &┬".
