Folks, I currently have version 3.1 of MPW, and I definitely need to keep using it. I am told that, for all intents and purposes, MPW 3.1 cannot be run under AUX 2.0. (I am also aware that there are some "work arounds."). - When will MPW be updated so that it will run under AUX 2.0? (I realize that there are "beta" versions of MPW 3.2(?) floating around, but these are primarily for (certified? blessed?) developers. What I am looking for is a version which can be legally purchased by "mere mortals.") - Are there any "gotchas" with any version of MPW that will run under AUX 2.0? For example, - Are there any compilers/languages/tools which currently run just fine under MPW 3.1, but will not (or probably will not) run under a version of MPW running under AUX 2.0? - Are there any hardware conflicts? I am running a Mac IIfx with 8 megs of ram, and 160 megs of internal hard disk. Thanks for your time and consideration. -- Ed ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Edward V.

Dear Ed - MPW 3.2 will run under A/UX. It is currently going beta, and this beta release, which will work under A/UX, will be part of the E.T.O. #2 release. E.T.O - Essentials*Tools*Objects is a great way to stay up with the latest and greatest from Apple if you are a "mere mortal" or "blessed developer". To get information on ordering E.T.O., contact APDA at 1-800-282-APDA! -- Jordan Mattson UUCP: jordan@apple.apple.com Apple Computer, Inc.
