Re: [OT] self-expanding archives in Mac Classic
Actually I managed to find a way to get Stuffit expander 3.5 on Mac OS 9 to do the job :) Richmond. On 14/2/2018 8:53 pm, JB via use-livecode wrote: What type of self expanding archive?

Can anyone help me in this respect?

Re: [OT] self-expanding archives in Mac Classic
I have not used Classic OS 9 in years but since he is using it why won’t it work in that? JB > On Feb 14, 2018, at 11:12 AM, Bob Sneidar via use-livecode > wrote: > > It's an OS 9 executable.

Re: [OT] self-expanding archives in Mac Classic
It's an OS 9 executable. Unless you can open it in SheepShaver or some emulator, I think you will have to open it in a computer running OS 9.

Re: [OT] self-expanding archives in Mac Classic
What type of self expanding archive? There are different versions of stuffit expander and it might be a disk image that needs to be mounted. Macintosh Garden has expanders and image mounters for just about any type of archive. They have a search engine that will show a lot of applications and I think they are your best solution. Without more info thats all I can do.
