To which I say:
I think things are being confused because Andy said PPC. PPC and OSX are like
CDs and music. The latters play/run on the formers, but need not, and other
things can "run" on the formers.
Still, I don't get the problem. Open the 68K script, copy its text to OSX, or
any PPC MacOS, recompile. Fix what doesn't work. What am I missing? Why do we
need to even acknowledge the existence of C++, stubs, applet shells, and
horking?
