Subject: Re: MacGroup: carbonlib

Jerry, thanks for responding to my question about carbonlib.  My reason
for inquiring is that I download a game from Mac-Yun-Soft and it would
not run.  When I contacted Mac-Yun-Soft they said to be sure I had the
newest version of Carbonlib installed on my Mac. I do not know if
carbonlib is already on my Mac or not, I can't find it.  Also,  I
checked Apple Support and could not find a download.  Is there anything
I can do?
Appreciate your help.

George Yankey
