    **** HyperCard Navigator Stack -- NEW FOR THIS RELEASE ****
    "World_Factbook_1991_Navigator"
    In HyperCard we have built a HyperCard "stack" to access the data in the
    following ways: search for country names, search for any text,
    find countries geographically, "zoom" in or out of geographic
    regions, and finally select countries alphabetically.
    Features include: 16 color maps of each country and b/w region maps, 
    text descriptions of each country, 3 search types, and on-line help.
    The TextWare version below has additional text appendices about world
    organizations.
