we are also allowed to reverse engineer and such in .au, however I have
never programmed in macos and dont have any macos devel tools, so wouldnt
even know where to begin doing the equivalent of
strace -f -p `pidof controlpanel`, though I could probably work out the ppc
asm in a macos binary, it would be a long and slow process to work out what
is happening inthe internals of a macos binary like that etc etc. Give me
linux anyday. Free devel tools, open formats, open source, etc. though I am
speaking to the converted so hey.
See You
