 Hi friends,

 I am currently working on the new MC IDE 4 and while I am at this,
 there are some questions concerning the output of the new standalone
 building process.

 OS X:
 Would you like to output
 a: ppc, fat AND intel apps at the same time like Rev does?
 This would require to create subfolder(s) in the target directory!

 b: ppc OR fat OR intel apps = only one app at a time?


The RunRev 4 standalone builder CAN churn out PPC, FAT ('Universal') and
INTEL
apps all at once; 2 out of 3, or only 1.

It would be nice if Metacard 4 could do much the same.

I think subfolders called MACPPC, MACMIXT/FAT/UNIVERSAL/CONFUSING and
MACINTEL would be useful for stupid types like me who might have forgotten
which
types of standalones they had chosen to spin off.



 Know what I mean?


 -
 What else will be new in 4.0:
 - Added new stack to locate the Rev standalone engines.
 - uses new function mcPrefsFolder to store the info in a text file.
 See below...

 MetaCard Menu Bar:
 - Added backscript to not only move but also resize objects with the
 arrowkeys
 - when pressing the ALT-key additionally.
 - Thanks to Richard Gaskin for the scripts!

 - Added function mcPrefsFolder to backscript which returns:
 - Mac: specialFolderPath(preferences)
 - Windows (= 2000): specialFolderPath(26)
 - Windows (95/96/97/98/99/ME): specialfolderpath(system)
 - Linux: $HOME
 - A subfolder MetaCard will be created there
 - Hint: This function also returns the neccessary trailing slash!
 (We should use this folder for all new preferences from now on!)

 - Added a new Menu Window, where you can easily switch windows.

 -

 Will also add an updated version of Ken Rays Varaible Watcher.

 Hint:
 To build standalones for OS Classic you will need to open the old
 Standalone Builder. I supplied a button to open that stack in the latest
 Standalone Builder stack.


 Best

 Klaus

Personally, I only do Universal, and eventually I'll only do Intel since
Apple stopped using PPC processors. So I'd vote for (b) myself, but it
wouldn't bother me to have (a). :-)
 
 Will also add an updated version of Ken Rays Varaible Watcher.

Thanks for the reminder, Klaus... how soon do you see making this available?
(I just want to know how much time I have to get the VW ready...)

Oh, I'm sure no one will mind waiting a few hours. Take your time. :)
