Nah, customers hate that crap. =) I respect your wish to take PPC out, but when you asked at the time I did protest for this very reason. I was the lone protester, of course. But I understand - the Mac culture likes removing legacy code. I never liked that part of the culture, and I've never heard of a legitimate argument for legacy-removal that says "it improves performance of newer code" - it doesn't, it's just a cleanliness thing. I can live with this, the only problem is cosmetic - Mojave users see icons derived from files with black masks. No ones gonna die. I wonder if it'd be possible/fun to take an image and make a mask out of it with black. Later this year, since I'm changing to Xojo and 64-bit support, my distributions will have maybe up to 5 different binaries, so the problem will be solved naturally that way.
