HyperSense


HyperSense was a HyperCard-compatible authoring environment with advanced features, which enables anyone to create multimedia documents and applications. Taking full advantage of the user-friendly NeXTStep interface, HyperSense's extraordinary flexibility allowed you to quickly and easily create a wide variety of documents, ranging from simple brochures to personal databases, interactive tutorials and business presentations.

A rich document architecture combined with the English-like SenseTalk scripting language give you the power and flexibility you needed to create sophisticated applications, without sacrificing ease of use.

HyperSense Q and A

HyperSense was powerful multi-purpose authoring software that made sense – for everyone! You could easily create business tutorials and presentations, personal databases, courseware, hypertext books, or any other interactive multimedia documents. You could also import and modify HyperCard stacks!

HyperSense was created to unlock the power of NEXTSTEP for users of all abilities. By simply dragging objects such as fields, buttons, and graphic elements onto a page, you could easily create simple databases, drawings, or brochures. The ability to add scripts to any object, combined with HyperSense's rich document architecture, provided tremendous power and flexibility. Imagine the possibilities.

The highly acclaimed SenseTalk scripting language was very English-like, making it exceptionally easy to learn and understand. You didn't have to be a programmer to bring your document to life. Custom palettes of pre-scripted objects and the ability to easily copy and modify existing scripts allowed sophisticated documents to be created without any programming whatsoever.
