It's been awhile since I posted a new Mac VM,  3.8.6b6 was the last one  
posted. Over the last few months VM builders have  migrated to 32/64bit  
logic,  changed from CVS to SVN, moved from sourceforge to other  
servers, and I've been busy with Tk4/Sophie.

However I'll shortly post 3.8.8b2 for OS-X and OS-9 (within 24 hours).
The change log follows, and I'd suggest people on os-9 or earlier  
confirm the VM works as expected, plus of course testing under OS-X

I will update my main work machine to os-x 10.4.1 in a few days and  
build a new VM with GCC 4.x and attempt to address any OS-X Tiger  
issues. (Of which the 60 frames per second, may be an issue?)

3.8.8b2			Revisions to the 32/64bit memory access to improve VM  
performance
				sqMacJoystickAndTablet.c	More rewrites by Bert.

			 		-help                 print this help message, then  
exit					-memory <size>[mk]    use fixed heap size (added to image  
size)					-pathenc <enc>        set encoding for pathnames (default:  
UTF-8)
