Known Problems & Issues
- Hex Wrench is preset for a preferred 640K memory allocation. On a 68K Macintosh, it needs it. On a PowerPC, you can crank it down to the minimum allocation of 384K. I have never understood why the MacOS doesn't use a separate SIZE resource for PowerPC, but that's how it is.
