Berard) Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac.programmer,comp.unix.aux Subject: AUX 2.0 and MPW Compatibility Summary: When will MPW be compatible with AUX 2.0 Keywords: MPW, AUX Message-ID: Date: 14 Sep 90 14:50:44 GMT Reply-To: eberard@bse.com Organization: Berard Software Engineering, Inc. Lines: 25 Approved: eberard@bse.com (Edward V. Berard) X-Mailer: uMail - Mac Release: 0.1.4 Folks, I currently have version 3.1 of MPW, and I definitely need to keep using it. I am told that, for all intents and purposes, MPW 3.1 cannot be run under AUX 2.0. (I am also aware that there are some "work arounds."). - When will MPW be updated so that it will run under AUX 2.0? (I realize that there are "beta" versions of MPW 3.2(?) floating around, but these are primarily for (certified? blessed?) developers. What I am looking for is a version which can be legally purchased by "mere mortals.") - Are there any "gotchas" with any version of MPW that will run under AUX 2.0? For example, - Are there any compilers/languages/tools which currently run just fine under MPW 3.1, but will not (or probably will not) run under a version of MPW running under AUX 2.0? - Are there any hardware conflicts? I am running a Mac IIfx with 8 megs of ram, and 160 megs of internal hard disk. Thanks for your time and consideration. -- Ed ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edward V.
