A newer version to that on a previous disk.

This is the third HyperCard IIGS public domain disk released by the AUG. This disk contains some interesting stacks from the U.S., as well as some local ones.

"Util.Bucket" contains some interesting new XCMDs.
"Four.Ltr.Word" and "HAdventure.1.0" are games.
"StackClock" is exactly that, and
"StoryBook" is yet another fairy tale, represented very well within a HyperCard IIGS stack.
