To the fellow who doubted my claim that you can stack visual effects and that 
they get queued up.  Try this:

	visual effect scroll left
	visual effect scroll left
	go to prev card

It will scroll left twice.  This means that Hypercard is saving these things 
up until you go somewhere.  That someone also made the comment that doing a

	visual effect dissolve to inverse

does something right away.  This is wrong.  This statement does not do
anything until a go command is issued.  The go command is the only command
that seems to flush the visual effects queue.  There may be some other
statements that clear this queue, but most do not affect it.  I do not have
time to do an in depth analysis of the commands that mess with the visual
effects queue. Theoretically, Keith from Hyperbug@Apple is looking into this
question. Perhaps he can shed some light on the subject.
