@provuejim Thanks for sharing, Jim!

@smallsco I wrote software for these versions of MacOS when they were new, so I’m fascinated that people are still writing new stuff. Not tempted to do the same though, I’m happy to work with better tools now! Have fun

@provuejim Thanks! Yeah the tooling is pretty awful compared to what we have nowadays.

It's hard enough just for a hobby / hack project where I can get away with cutting corners - I can't imagine what it would have been like to do commercial software development back in the day when this was considered top of the line ​

I'm glad at least that I'm working with MacPython rather than C or Pascal, which abstracts away some of the scarier bits of the OS internals!

@provuejim Amazing! A real wizard among us ​
