I downloaded it (again), and on the PC side I get mc.exe, mctools.mc 
and a readme file, and everything sort of seems right, but on the mac 
side I just get the engines (I presume) MetaCardcarbon, MetaCard PPC, 
and the mstools.mc and readme file.

Is the development environment for Mac side omitted by accident or 
design? I'm really wanting to have a play with the Mac side this 
weekend if I can.

At first I couldn't get the stack to work. I was a bit lost until I 
tried  "record sound x" in the message box and got back a "Quicktime 
couldn't initialise" or similar error, which tells me I have to 
install quick time for Windows first :-)

I'll do that this weekend, and if I'm lucky enough to get the Mac 
side working, I'm sure I'll have fun this weekend :-).

Thanks for your help (and the stack),

Mark
