Buddy API Mac 1.6

This version is Xtra for use with PPC Macs. There are two versions - one for OSX and another for Classic Mac. The OSX version can only be used with Director MX and later under OSX. The Classic version can be used in any version of Director up to 9.0, running under OSX or earlier Mac versions.

This Xtra may be freely used and distributed. There is no registration required, or copy protection or time limits implemented. However, only registered users of the Windows version are officially entitled to support.

Included in this archive is a Windows Xtra called baMac.x32. This Xtra contains the functions that are present in the Mac version but not the Windows. This will allow authors who work on Windows to load the Mac only functions. Naturally, the functions will not actually do anything if executed on Windows. There is also a Mac Xtra which contains the Windows only functions.

This version uses FlashPaper for documentation. It covers both the Windows and Macintosh versions. You should place the Buddy API Docs.swf file in the same folder as the xtra, and then it can be accessed  on Directors Xtras menu. If you have the stand alone Flash player installed, the docs will open in the player. If you don't have the player installed, you can either download the player from Macromedia, or you can elect to have it open up in a browser. To do this, click on the swf file in Finder while holding down the Control key. On the  pop up menu, choose 'Open with...' and then your browser. If it is not listed, select 'Other...' and select your browser.
