Comments
I have tested this in Basilisk II with Mac OS 8.1 (Mac OS 7.x look-and-feel) and it works perfectly. No hangs....
Nice to see it runs on Mac OS 9 at all.
I have tested the software on Mac OS 9.2.2 native. There it works fine.
I did not install the software on my hard drive but run it from the CD.
(The best thing was e.e. cummings short poem on politicians read by himself. Thanks a lot.)
It did not test it on SheepShaver because I have not installed Sheepshaver.
In Mac OS 9, a Runtime error prevents this application to run in my Sheep configuration,
When trying to run this in Mac OS 7.5 installed within Bas, the emulator hangs.
Someone pease test this software using Mac OS 8 and 9, too.
