Stuffit + MacInTax should work in 1.3 (cross your fingers)
Dear Folks,
StuffIt uses an undocumented trap to do some of its
compresssion/decompression. In addition, there's a seperate bug
related to "working directories" that prevents StuffIt from going
under Executor 1.2.1.
I've figured out the undocumented trap and we now support it. Since
that was the major obstacle to getting Stuffit working, I'll go back
and work on the minor obstacle. I don't anticipate sufficient
problems to prevent Stuffit from running under 1.3 (it may already
run "in the lab", I haven't checked recently).
MacInTax was working "in the lab" before Executor 1.2.1 was
finalized, but I think it broke due to some changes in the way files
that begin with two HEX digits are handled. We won't have time to do
much testing of it, but I believe MacInTax will run under 1.3 as
well.
