This is a problem with the Interpreter (I have not been able to
get the IDE to run on my system, it either quits with a
IsAntiAliasesTextEnabled error or a Mac 1011 error depending on
whether I try to run the Classis or Carbon version.)
I'm running OC 8.5.1 on a 7600 which I don't think is Carbon
compatible (right?) so I assume I'm running Classic. However, I
found CarbonLib 1.0.4 in my Extensions folder. Is it actually
being used or is it being ignored? (Sorry for the OS ignorance
here, not being a developer I don't often have to concern myself
with what features the OS has.)
