1.99a



I realize there is a lot going on at ARDI.  I just had a few comments about
1.99a compatibility.

I can longer run Microsoft Word under 1.99a.  Also, the problem with the
Crystal Quest demo (crashes after 1 level) appeared.  There are several
programs that wored with 1.2x that no longer work (even in 1 bit color mode).

One item that I think should be a relative priority is StuffIt/UnstuffIt
compatibility; I have some archives that Compact Pro won't touch.

I think the file utilities DA should definitely support Filetype/Creator
modification, esp. for transferring files from DOS.  Also, I've often had files
"disappear" after being used, apparently because of something stored in the
resource fork.  With a DOS volume, deleting the %xxx file seems to restore it.

Any word on System 7 compatibility?
