You’re welcome. I think we need to get both my Intel-only version and your
PPC-only version put together somewhere. It also might be good to do a Mac
OSX PPC build, since I believe that yours requires Classic, which isn’t
exactly optimal. Mine might be more confusing to users though, since it’s
done as a Unix command. (I have no idea how yours work, since it won’t run
on my machine; I don’t have Classic.)

The version I posted does not require Classic. It’s an old CFM Carbon program
(not Mach-O) that can run natively under both OS 8/9 and OS X. It is PowerPC
though, so on an Intel Mac, it gets emulated via Rosetta. (But I suspect it runs
faster there than it does on my Powerbook G4!)
The only caveat for those who try it: make sure you choose an output image type
on the Image & Quality tab; otherwise the edge-tracing post-process will
cryptically fail.
It would be good to get these programs hosted together too, given their rarity.
They’re both quite useful. I tend to be one of those people who reflexively use
GUIs. However, a command-line tool will be best for automated
instruction-generation.

| (...) Sorry. I used the command line unzip (on my Macbook) to unzip the file, and that toasted the contents. Apparently the resource fork didn't extract properly. Using a different unzipper solved the problem. --Travis (17 years ago, 31-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
