HyperCard: Information on ADSP XCMDs in MacTutor



I need to do HyperCard AppleTalk-type developing. My project requires data
streaming and zones, but the current HyperAppleTalk Toolkit does not support
ADSP (Apple Data Stream Protocol). Will the toolkit be updated to provide this
support? If not, where can I get more information on writing my own XCMDs and
XFCNs?

Apple is not planning any updates to the package. However, "Inside Macintosh"
contains all the information you need to create the kind of XCMDs you require.
Further, the author of the toolkit XCMDs wrote a series of articles in
"MacTutor" (publication now known as MachTech) magazine describing AppleTalk
XCMDs including ADSP. The articles are an excellent source of information on
how it all works. The series ran from January through May of 1989.
