Mac OSX /View problem - solved.
[1/2] from: gosbell::myrealbox::com at: 5-Mar-2004 8:56
As usual, I've stumbled across the solution to the "View won't run on Mac OSX" problem
completely by accident - enable Open Transport and Shared Library extensions. For what
it's worth, here's how to do it:
Open System Preferences - Classic - Advanced
Under Startup options select "Open Extensions Manager" then hit "Restart Classic"
In the Mac OS9 Extensions Manager enable:
Open Transport
Shared Library Manager
Shared Library Manager PPC
Hit "Continue" and you've got yourself a REBOL-ready Classic environment.
You'll probably want to go back to System Preferences and set Startup options back to
"Turn off Extensions".
I suppose if I were an "old-school" Mac addict (rather than an OSX latecomer) I would
have spotted that straight away...
Cheers,
Trevor.

Hi Trevor,
Does this mean that I can really go ahead and buy myself a used titanium laptop? really,
does it work well, or is it clunky and painfull?
Do you know of a place where we can view all the limitations (if any) of running rebol/view
on OSX with the OS9 emulator?
TIA!

You can either be part of the problem or part of the solution, but in the end, being
part of the problem is much more fun.
