Since there appear to be at least one person on this list who has, like me, experienced that SIMS freezes sometimes when running in the Classic box of OS X, I want to announce a little fix I've made:
I've written a program that uses a yet-undocumented call (but Apple said they want to document it eventually) that can force- quit a Classic app. This is the very same functionality that you get if you use the Force Quit command from the Apple menu. I made an app that quits SIMS in this way: First, it looks if SIMS is running. If it does, it sends an AppleEvent to SIMS asking it to quit gracefully. If, after 10s, SIMS is still running, it's being killing by my app, without killing other processes that might also be still running under Classic. If anyone is interested in this little app, just ask. (You still need to have a AppleScript or other process to monitor if SIMS is still responsive, and launch my app from it. I use "WhistleBlower" for that purpose) Thomas -- Thomas Tempelmann, http://www.tempel.org/rb/ ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
