You cannot yet drop in Apple's System 7, even in Executor 2.0.  We
plan to add that feature, but don't expect to see it for another year.
For now you can enable Executor's limited System 7 emulation by
running Executor as:

executor -system 7

or by changing the system version in the alt-shift-5 preferences
panel.  Note that Executor's system 7 support is still incomplete, so
this can cause problems for some programs.  In general you shouldn't
enable the system 7 features unless you know you need them.
