- Hi!
-
- > I tested a few more apps today. Heres what I got so far:
-
- Ok, I did test some apps, too:
-
- ZX Spectrum Emulator - runs, slowly but runs
-
- C64 - same as Spectrum
-
- Apple ][ - same as Spectrum
-
- All three start up, boot there emulated computer (ok, you have to wait some
- 5 minutes for that <g>) and are able to load programs. Don't know if every
- aspect of them works, because they are so awfull slow. So not of much use
- on slower machines (don't know how it is with a pentium, maybe then they
- are usable).
-
- Some programming environments:
-
- Pixie Scheme - works well, loads files, runs programs, seems ok to me
-
- Help - (that's a lazy scheme, if someone is interested in that fact ;-) )
- starts up, can load files, can run functions, but sometimes crashes the
- Executor on exit (I test with a 1.99q without any number, so I should
- upgrade and test again, I think).
-
- ProIcon - Icon development environment. Starts up and can load files if you
- give them to it on startup. Can't load files with the open dialog, there is
- a assertion violation in the executor. Hangs on linking a program,
- compiling works ok. Will test it again as soon as I have the q7 or newer.
-
- MacGambit - a Scheme development environment. Doesn't start, gives me a
- "-1" on startup. Too bad, since it is one of the environments I am mostly
- interestd in (besides the ProIcon environment).
-
- JB Prolog Demo - starts up, runs, can load programs, can run programs, can
- work with it's databases. I changed a little bit in the database and now it
- doesn't run anymore, don't know if that's a fault auf JB Prolog or
- Executor.
-
- Open Prolog - doesn't start. Maybe with q7. Will test again.
-
- And then there are a bunch of programs, that need System 7. Don't run up to
- now, even with System 7 faking.
-
- MuPad, MauseFalle (EMail-programm for the Macintosh for a german BBS
- network), PCalc
-
- bye, Georg
