Hello Martin,

All I know about it, is from the web site. It says that Revolution 2.7 for Mac OS 9 will be released soon. Also, the standalone builder tells me that an engine for Mac OS 9, as well as Linux and Unix, will be available during the 2.7.x cycle.

Although I completely understand that Mac OS 9 is frozen now, some of my clients prefer to save as much money as possible on hardware and want me to build standalones for their old machines. What I'm making for them doesn't need a dual G5 or an Intel, they just need software that works. Although I can make standalones by saving my work in legacy format and building the Mac OS 9 standalone in Rev 2.6.1, it would save me time if I could build all standalones at once. I hope that another two or three releases will be made available for Mac OS 9, somehow, before RunRev Ltd completely drops it.

Best,

Mark

version of CodeWarrior or a rev 2.6.1 OS9 engine or something similar
you're just not going to be making OS9 apps. And there's very little
incentive to do so, given the increasingly smaller market.

So what exactly is the status of Revolution on OS9? Has there been an announcement about it? The Runrev Site does not advertise compatibility, however you can order RR Studio Classic from the Rev online shop. If anybody knows, could they please tell.
