Hi Bill,

I copied the new Classic standalone to a USB Zip Drive and then reconnected the drive to the G4, in turn copying the file to the G4. I hadn't refined the app very much with its own icon, etc. Just used all the default settings. But thanks, this gives me something to keep in mind as I go forward.

In order to get a truly valid comparison in file size, I should create an HC standalone, which, obviously, for like reasons would be "much" larger.

Hi Joe,

I just compiled a Classic Standalone using 2.9.0 with my very small HC stack (56k) that suddenly grew to 2.2 MB, and when transferred to a Mac
G4 running 9.2.2, it produces an error dialog that says it cannot  be
opened due to a type -199 error.

The file size increase is of course due to the inclusion of resources
necessary to create a standalone app.

The -199 error... if memory serves right, negative numbers are disk errors. How did you transfer the file to Classic? Perhaps the resource fork didn't
make it through properly.

I was able to create a Classic standalone on my Intel MacBook and copied it
to an old iMac over the network... worked fine.
