- Colour Quickdraw most definitely runs under Executor, *but* see below.

- Some programs get confused by things that Executor does (or doesn't
- do) that a real Mac won't do. Sometimes they get so confused that
- they print error messages that are not particularly appropriate.
- Either that is happening, or Jetpack is doing something unexpected to
- determine whether or not we have Color QuickDraw.

- I'm not sure what you're asking here. I *think* you're asking where
- to pick up Color QuickDraw. Executor *will not* work with the old
- 32-bit color quickdraw init, but it does have a color quickdraw
- equivalent built in. The conflict between Executor and JetPack will
- have to be fixed over here (ARDI). I've just started pulling it over
- and will give it a spin in a few minutes, in between answering e-mail.
-
- Internally we can now run with the switch "-system 7" and are
- beginning to be able to run programs that *require* System 7. NIH
- Image 1.58 is limping and we're making great progress on a bunch of
- other big-ticket applications.
-
- BTW, yesterday I thought I'd get my e-mail box cleaned out -- I was
- dreadfully wrong. I wound up getting tired sooner than I thought and
- so I still have about 65 e-mail messages to reply to. I'm getting
- there though and I *think* I'll be awake for several more hours.
