If a CD is mounted and ready to play, how can its drawer be open? The
two conditions are mutually exclusive. What version of X is this? Older
versions had some definite latency problems with CDs.

That's interesting, I must say. I haven't tried printing under X with a
classic app, except to send stuff to PDF via preview.

Man, this is a corker. Off the top of my head I'd suggest just asking
the user.
OH! Wait! In Classic, there's a program called uiHelper that runs. It's
*only* running if an app is running in Classic under X. If it's running
9 native, that app is *not* loaded. So perhaps you could use BuddyAPI
or FileXtra3 or some such to see if there's a program called "uiHelper"
running -- if so, you know for sure it's Classic under X.
