some more programs that crash




I've tested all the programs that I tried with the previos version.  MSWord
works well.  As in the previous version, the following programs crash: 

MacInTax, 4th Dimension, MacProject II, MORE 3.0 and Sargon IV.  CheckFree 1.5
gives a message saying "Cannot read communications parameters" when trying to
open a data file.  Will Exceutor eventually provide access to the serial ports?
 Type! works as before.  Parts of Ecxel 3.0 work, but eventually it crashes.

Note, at the time this was written,  the author didn't know how to use the "-dogmeat" option.   
I have no idea whether or not it would change things.  We have run a copy of 4th  
Dimension demo on our Sun3/60 and I just checked and it does indeed crash now  
although it didn't use to.  This is good and bad.  It is good because it seems as though we  
screwed something up which may be killing many a program, this is bad for you because  
you own a screwed up copy (which does run MSW fine though).  We will have 4th  
dimension demo working again by the time the free printing upgrade comes out.
