- So Just fish the CFM68k 'pref' resource out of the project file, drag the
- project folder on top of PartMaker 4.4 and it will create the PartMaker
- document? Did I understand that right?
-
- On trying it I was indeed able to get a PartMaker document, but when I
- dragged it onto PartMaker to actually make the project, the machine froze.
- There are some other problems somewhere. Any other thoughts?
-
- The whole notion of a tool for making startup projects, so we don't have to
- worry about the nmap and SOM details is a nice idea. What is the futre for
- something like that?
