Keywords: SAD MAC CODES Message-ID: <697@dlogics.COM> Date: 8 Dec 90 02:56:17 GMT References: <12071@hubcap.clemson.edu> <47154@apple.Apple.COM> Distribution: usa Organization: Datalogics Inc., Chicago Lines: 19 The package manager gives a system error of 17+package number for package not present. This means that a missing Color Picker is Error ID=29, which is *NOT DOCUMENTED ANYWHERE*. I figured out this error by disassembling the ROM on my Mac Plus (I have a program that _used_ to use the color conversion stuff in the Color Picker; if the user was on a Plus running a minimal system, boom, ID=29). BTW, the Color Picker used to work on non-color Macs(!) which was nice if you were doing color work you didn't necessarily need Color QD to display. Somewhere along the way in 6.0.?, Apple broke this. It'd really be nice if it still worked. -- Kevin A. Mitchell (312) 266-4485 Datalogics, Inc Internet: kam@dlogics.UUCP 441 W.
