[comp.sys.mac] Need help making INIT

dmw3@ur-tut.UUCP (David Walsh) (10/06/87)

I am trying to create an INIT resource with Lightspeed Pascal v1.0, but it
will only create DRVR's and CODE resources.  Is it possible to create say a 
DRVR and modify it with Resedit to make it an INIT?  Is there another way to
create an INIT in Lighspeed Pascal?  I haven't found anything of use in Inside
the Macintosh about the format of the INIT resource and I haven't found the
Lightspeed manual too helpful on this topic either.

Any help that anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated.  Source code
for a pre-made INIT would be of great benefit, especially anything written in
Lightspeed.

Thanks a lot.

To create an INIT resource, click on the button labeled "Code Resource"
in the Build And Save As... dialog box; a little dialog will come
up and you can set the resource type (INIT in this case), resource ID, 
and name of your code resource.

The manual doesn't explain this, but the 1.0 Release Supplement does, and
that should have been included along with your package. It will be incorporated
into the manual for the next release.
