Re: Application size: Mac vs. Win
That wouldn't account for 100MB difference. I can't think of any reason there would be so much difference. -- M E R Goulding Software development services mergExt - There's an external for that!

Re: Application size: Mac vs. Win
I sell Windows, Mac PPC and Mac INTEL versions of my software (Devawriter Pro: http://andregarzia.on-rev.com/richmond/dwriterpro.html ) and can see absolutely no point in burdening either PPC customers or INTEL ones with extra baggage. A Macintosh Universal binary version of my software can only be explained in terms of the word bloatware, and as customers (and those who want to play with the Demo) are probably switched on enough to know whether they have a PPC or INTEL Macintosh in front of them, there is no reason that I can think of to produce a Universal binary build.

Re: Application size: Mac vs. Win
2013/3/6 Peter Bogdanoff bogdan...@me.com That makes so much sense, it hurts. Of course! Thanks! What Monte said makes sense too... So, you probably can check if you have a fat binary ( universal ) with this Terminal command: lipo -info path_of_my_binary the binary is : yourApp.app/Contents/MacOs/yourApp And you can also open your app in the finder (open package) and visually see if there is some extra stacks or resources... ( this happened to me few years ago ) HTH, Thierry ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: Application size: Mac vs. Win
It seems that I had both Universal AND PowerPC checked. Checking Intel only brought the size back to the same as Windows. I don't know if any of my customers will have PowerPC...
