Macbeth.SHK contains a "BookStack" of
William Shakespeare's play "Macbeth".
(A Bookstack is a HyperCard IIgs stack
containing the complete text of a book
or other text file).

Like other BookStacks, this one allows
the user to create HyperText links (i.e.
click on some text and see the note you
left for yourself about it). It also allows
multimedia links, where clicking the text
shows a picture, plays an animation, plays
a sound, or loads a text file.

It also has a built-in text editor, suitable
for writing notes or an essay about the
text.

A version of this stack with links that
explain all the archaic words, show
a picture of Shakespeare, and have two
short essays (one on the play, one on the
author) appears in HyperQuarterly issue 2.
See the bookstack for more information.
