Hi Eric,
Here's a quick example you can play with and modify as you like. It
isn't meant to be the be-all-end-all, it just illustrates the one app
structure idea I was promoting.

I presume you mean Rev with universal binaries to take full advantage

Solo Mac Mini for several weeks now. Both run fineand fast... today.

Your notes jogged by memory, and I dug into my old XCMD collections.
Kevin Calhoun's ClipToPict XCMD in the Dartmouth collection, and

Sorry, I should have said that getResources(pFilePath,"PICT")
should return a list af all the PICT resources in a file, and then
you can loop through the list using getResource (or copyResource) to
extract them.

You'll have to do the conversion in Hypercard 'cause those won't work in Rev.

Hi Viktoras,
One common way to handle this is to organize your app like this:
- the main app consists of the engine & your splash screen stack only.
This keeps the executable small so it opens quickly when the user starts
the app.
- the splash screen stack contains code that opens the 'real'
