[comp.sys.mac.programmer] How do you write an INIT??

nugteren@pttrnl.nl (10/31/90)

I have written an application that I would like to keep memory resident.
I've been told that the best way to do this is turn the application into an
INIT. I have the inside MacIntoshes, but as far as I can tell they don't
explain how to write an INIT (I assume an INIT has a special structure, just
like a driver has a special structure, and isn't just an application with an
INIT lable). Can anyone explain to me what an INIT looks like, and how I can
convert my application into an INIT?
Or maybe someone knows an easier way to keep a program resident?

I'd appreciate any help,

You will want to read TN #268: Standalone code... (The number may be a
little off.)  It discusses in 30 odd pages how to write a basic init
and other standalone code.
