- You can change the Finder's type to APPL with ResEdit (at least under
- System 6) and it can be double-clicked (You have to do this using a real
- Mac, of course).
-
- However, I've just tried this with the Finder from System 6.0.7 and the
- result won't run under Executor 1.99q12; after the warning about not
- being 32-bit clean is dismissed, Executor displays the Z cursor and hangs
- forever.

-
- Not AFAIK, but you can pass the name of a program to run on Executor's
- command line (see docs for more details).

-
- It would if it worked (see above).
