You are using Mac OS 8.6, right?  So we can be pretty sure that anything
compiled for 9.x will work on 8.6.  I know that one goal is to get an editor
that works back to 7.1 (or 7.6) so that kids can use it at schools.  Anyway,
no need to worry about that now.

I think the next goal should be to get ldglite .94 working on Mac OS 8.6 -
9.x   (the .5 version isn't very useful).

Wiz, have you tried compiling it?  I think that those changes that you made
on 2.2.2002 will be invaluable to getting the .94 version to compile.  (the
changes are here: http://firebolt.mlmc.utah.edu/macLDGLite_0.5_020202.sit)

Is anyone else interested in compiling the .94 version?  I'll be gone most
of the day, so if I get a chance to try it, it wont be until late tonight.

Voila ! Yes, Stuffit Expander (v 5.5) did unwind the tar.gz file :)

Now I get no missing file messages, but I did get 30 or 40 syntax errors. The
drawing is much more complete than before.

The biggest hassle is that the window title bar for the rendering window is
behind the menu bar. This is because it intersects the menu bar and the menu bar
is *always* in front of everything else. This makes is very difficult to resize
or 'window shade' the rendering window.

There was one minor issue with the SIOUX msg window clipping out a rectangle on
the rendering window, but that went away when I moved the rendering window,
which I could only do with the thin side border because the title bar is hidden.

(...) Yes, 8.6, apparently with the OpenGL 1.2.1 components (I must have installed these when I was trying out BrickDraw 3D). My suggestion would be to make 7.6.1 your base target. That release was reasonably stable, earlier releases had varying (...) (23 years ago, 10-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Am trying to compile this, but having more than a few problems using CW-Pro-5. Anyone with experience compiling this (any vers of CW), email me and maybe we can work around the diffs between CW-Pro-5 and CW-Pro-7.2. TIA, Ray (23 years ago, 10-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
