What did you download, bf-mac? There should be a penguin inside (17 or 18,
depends on your version). Doenst that work? I think there should be a hqx
inside, if so, can you please check, if that works, especially, if its
Penguin-18. Thats completely untested, it was unpacked and copied over from
a Mac emulator...

Neat. Nothing that should be changed in the bf, everything can stay as it
