Then better hurry up. It's already well past noon on July 1st here so the list might go to /dev/null any second...

Down the memory hole it goes, like so many other things that we cherished about the Mac platform. > bad decision IMHO. Windows apps i wrote twenty years ago still work (still > COMPILE!) on latest OS & tools. not so mac. ref unsystem; rewrite fullwise. I've gone to considerable effort to make applications that build and run on every Mac OS version from System 6 to the latest, and I can't do that anymore. Maybe I'll pick up some Objective-C eventually, but first I'll learn some community-developed C-based toolkits that run on free operating systems. I'm not a fan of the Red Queen's race: rewriting code over and over again just to keep it working at all. Unix's open() function still works decades later -- it's not even deprecated. Nobody's been forced to switch to openat() (or something else entirely) and kill off support for older OSes that don't have it. > used to be apple was “the good guys”. That was the tale they told us in the 1984 commercial, at least. I hope the list archives remain online so I and others can continue to derive benefit from Eric's knowledge.
