So, are the apps just running in some sort of compatibility mode? For
instance Graphic Converter has an about box that mentions CFM and PPC but it
seems to behave nicely. Get info on most of the working apps does not list
(Universal). If this is not the case, what is the Xcode reason for such
success.


Could someone list a URL for such a compatibility mode documentation. Is the
phrase" compatibility mode" even a legitimate Xcode concept and if not, what
is the correct phrase for such forward compatibility behavior? Just asking a
few questions before I load the developer tools and start reading the
manual.


Here's that URL:
