- howdy folks,
-
- first, a reminder to everyone who gets something worthwhile to work
- under executor - please take the time to add an entry to the the
- 'programs that work' page on the unofficial executor home page - see
- http://vorlon.mit.edu/ardi/proglist.html for more info.
-
- second, the relevant info:
-
- Linux 1.3.57
- Executor 1.99q3+ (ELF X-windows version - don't ask about the 3+)
-
- third, the meat of the matter:
-
- well, i'm perpetually impressed with executor. we just bought
- KaleidaGraph 3.0.5 and it arrived today. i installed it on our macs
- and then did a special installation to copy to my linux box.
-
- when you install you get three choices, Generic, FPU, or PowerMac.
- for the copy i wanted on zifi i picked the generic option since
- executor doesn't fake the mac fpu.
-
- after it was installed, i packed it up on the mac w/ compact pro and
- then binhexed it. next, i copied it over using appletalk (linux
- kicks!). on the Linux machine i simply reversed the process, using
- compact pro for all steps.
-
- the program prints just perfectly although as with all programs
- landscape mode is not available. so far i have printed both graphs
- and the spreadsheet both of which worked as if i had printed on one of
- our macs.
-
- all features appear to function normally. the program actually runs
- pretty fast. i'd guess it's about 3/4 to 1/2 the speed as on our
- Quadra 900 which uses the FPU version of kaleidagraph.
