[comp.lang.smalltalk] Objectworks R4 Bug in Mac

kww@cs.glasgow.ac.uk (Dr Kevin Waite) (12/29/90)

I have just received a copy of Objectworks Release 4 for
my Macintosh IIcx.  The installation went smoothly but when
I came to run it I got as far as the window display and then
the input went dead.  The mouse was being tracked but key and
mouse clicks were not be handled.   After a bit of file moving
I discovered that the problem was due to the MacroMaker utility.
When this was removed from my system folder everything worked.
It seems as if MacroMaker is intercepting the input events
and not passing them on to Smalltalk.   I hope this is of interest.

(The version of MacroMaker is 1.0.1 and was supplied by Apple).
