HyperTalk

HyperTalk - Bill Atkinson and Dan Winkler. A verbose semicompiled language
with loose syntax and high readability. Relies on HyperCard as an object
management system, development environment, and interface builder.
Programs are organized into "stacks" of "cards", each of which may have
"buttons" and "fields". All data storage is in zero-terminated strings in
fields, local, or global variables; all data references are through "chunk
expressions" of the form last item of background field "Name List" of card
ID 34217. Flow of control is event-driven and message-passgin among
scripts that are attached to stack, background, card, field and button
objects. "Apple Macintosh HyperCard User Guide", Apple Computer 1987.
