Yes Yes it's compiling now, and the change set is being reviewed for
correctness, so you'll all have a 2.9.6 VM by mid weekend or so...
The 2.9.6 VM also has the ability to set/get the left/right sound
volumes, a primitive hook to your favorite OS's underlying noise
interface. Of course we need the linux/windows/bsd/etc VM support for
that feature too...
PS If you build embedded mac applications don't forget to set the
application signature to something else other than FAST (the Squeak
signature) Otherwise that shinny new application you just create will
launch next time you double click on a Squeak Image. (not what you
want...) Also dont' forget if you change the signature then you need
to change the BNDL which contains the pretty icons etc, after all you
are building a double clickable Macintosh application and there are a
few rules to follow to ensure you have a well behaved macintosh
application.
