  9. NotPPC is a tiny 68K application that you can combine with your PowerPC
  10. application to avoid the annoying "System Error -192: Resource Not Found"
  11. that occurs when you try to run a PowerPC application on a 68K Macintosh.
  12.  
  13. NotPPC puts up a simple alert saying "You need a Macintosh equipped with
  14. a PowerPC processor to run this application."
  15.  
  16. To include this capability in your PowerPC application:
  17.  
  18. 1)    Build the NotPPC App using the NotPPC.make makefile.    
  19.  
  20. 2)    Add the following line to your PowerPC application's resource
  21.     description (.r) file...
  22.  
  23.     Include "NotPPC";
  24.  
  25.     This copies the resources from NotPPC to your PowerPC Application,
  26.     resulting in a "Fat" application.  Note that there are other
  27.     (equivalent) ways of creating "Fat" applications.
  28.     [see c_sample_fat.make for an example]
