I like the idea of the grading program and using it to help those of us who know nothing about Hypertalk learn something. I have had a brainstorm about a Hypercard Program and I'd like to at least try to do it myself.

What I would like to know is:

Those of you who program, briefly, please give an overview of the whole process. I realize it is probably unique for everyone.

Also, I am very good at and immensely enjoy learning applications. I'd really be interested in knowing more about computers but there is sooooo much out there and I don't necessarily want to program although that might be fun. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I should start?
