- Due to an overwhelming number of requests (well all right, there was one),
- here's the patch to fix the AppleEvents bug in Mops.
-
- First, a warning: Don't do this patch then save the patched nucleus.
- I first thought that might work, but it doesn't. It only works in
- installed applications. AppleEvents work OK in the Mops development
- environment as it is -- you only need this patch to make installed
- applications work with AppleEvents.
-
- So when you're ready to install an application, do the patch, then
- install. Make absolutely sure you click "install" in the dialog,
- NOT "save". Maybe you'd better save a copy of the nucleus off on a
- floppy first, anyway!
-
- Also, I don't think this will work *except* under System 7. It might,
- or it mightn't. I haven't checked it.
-
- OK, here goes. Type:
-
- hex
- 4e714e71 dup
- lobase 9a0e - !
- lobase 98f0 - !
-
- That's it. Assembly hackers will recognize 4e714e71 as two NOP's
- -- I'm wiping out a BRA and a BSR. Good luck!
-
- -- Mike.
