Stuff It Installer Bug



I just discovered an interesting bug with files creating using the Stuff It
Installer Program.  I created an installer file under Stuff-It Installer,
segmented the files and then wrote them out to disks.  The files installed
correctly on the two "real" Macs I tried it on (my Quadra) and a friends
Power Computing PPC box (so much for the "real").  When I installed it
in to Executor I experienced two bugs.  First, even with 1.996, the Aladin
startup screen did not draw correctly.  Second, and more seriously, the
second and third disk segments wouldn't register and Executor didn't
recognize the
files as the files that the installer disks wanted, even though the
installer recognized them without a hitch on machines using the Apple OS.
