[comp.sys.mac] FYI: New ResEdit & System mix

The new ResEdit 1.2b1.1 has considerable improvements. It appears they have
finally got someone to work on it. After browsing the resources and comparing
it to even 1.2d1 there is a lot that is new.  Just about every code resource
has change in size most significantly.  There are many new menus and new
TMPL's (templates for displaying resources). There is a couple dozen new
alerts which indicate a lot of checks & warnings have been added.

A System Mix?

I discovered the other day that I had accidently put the 6.1 Finder & 6.0?
Multifinder on with a 4.3 system.  It has been working just fine!  I tried
the 6.0 System and had problems with it, but those problems don't seem to
occur with the mix.  All the new features without the problems.  I'm running
on a 2.5meg SE.  I think some of the problems with the new system may be
machine type related. 6.0 seems to run fine on our Mac II.
