Nicely done!

There are some features in Bookmorph (done by Ted Kaehler) that allow 
its pages to be put to disk or a server and searched and shared 
without having to transmit the whole bookmorph. Look in the main 
"dot" menu.

Also, Ted and Scott have recently gone much further in 
"SuperDuperMaxiHyperCard". In 3.1 (and now 3.2) are a good start at 
facilities for scripting all of Squeak in a manner similar to the 
etoys, and to add drag and drop fields as real instance variables to 
cards. This is a kind of OOP superset to the HyperCard notion of 
Backgrounds. It is also the start of being able to construct 
arbitrary objects by direct manipulation.

Cheers,

Alan
