	No, but Lightspeed Pascal 1.11 does not work under MultiFinder.

	The "x" versions of the interface files are the Inside Mac V analogs
of the standard interfaces; that is, xQuickDraw contains the Color QuickDraw
interfaces, xToolIntf contains the Color Toolbox routines, and so forth.
The X files are of no interest to you unless you're planning to write
code that takes advantage of features described in volume V. 

	Caveat: the X interfaces were derived from interfaces in a beta
version of MPW, which was all that was available at the time, so they
do contain some things that have changed.

	The upcoming release 2.0 will work correctly under MultiFinder
(the betas are quite stable), and will contain correct interfaces.
