Compatibility
Architecture: 68k

System Software 6.0.7 or later and a 68020 CPU or higher. Requires 256 colors or grey scale. I have this on my G4 Mac running OS 9.0.4 with no problems. Runs great.
Also runs great on Basilisk II as long as the B-II display is set to 256 colors.

I can upload version 1.3, which appears to be a publicly distributed shareware version. Info-mac has version 1.4.2, which has a 30-day trial.

Wonder if I can grab the older version from 1992-1993 or so that was on my parents' machine. No clue if they even still have the computer. Man, I seriously need to go through my old stuff.

You could still host an older version (which I think this was?), since the latest one might not work on old computers (I'm guessing). Just don't supply a serial.
