I've pushed out a 3.8.11b2 Mac Carbon UNIVERSAL VM for people to use
on old slow powerpc macs, and newer faster better Intel Macs.
Again thanks to Impara for giving me a Mac Mini Solo to cross check
and compile the VM and plugins with.
Squeak 3.8.11beta2U.app.zip
It can be found by following the link to the idisk or the ftp server via
http://www.smalltalkconsulting.com/squeak.html
This VM should be promoted to the regular FTP servers after a few
days based on feedback.
This VM supports both the MacIntel environment and uses Unix file names.
Testing is of course on going. Feedback on peformance issues,
crashes or bizzare behavior is welcome.
Pending is the compile of the Browser Plugin VM.
This VM also wraps a set of plugins that have been compiled for
universal support, and we have changed
how plugins are loaded. By default the VM will look for plugins in
the bundle resource folder for either
bundles, or for unix libraries, then it will look in the external
Plugins Folder, and in the System/Frameworks
directory if it's determine the FFI interface is asking for a
framework entry. This change was made because the
MacIntel machines cannot load and use any previous powerpc plugins
that you may have lurking on your machine.
So for example if you have a KedamaPlugin.bundle bundle around that
is not compiled for universal support it will not load!
Plugins compiled and provided within the application bundle.

Alter getFileNameByFSRef to drop items needed by getFileNameByFSSpec.
Reworked much of drag and drop logic

don't bother with Gestalt, we now drag and drop exists on machines
of os-x era.
convert to use FSRef
Use GetDragAttributes versus bounds in window.
Drop WaitNextEvent, dummy up event
sqMacUnixFileInterface.c
findImageFilterProc use get pathname and last path component to
decide if file is image

use QDLocalToGlobalRect in ioPositionOfWindow versus casting rect
to point
sqMacHostWindow.h
sqMacInternetConfiguration.c
make FSRef when dealing with ICFileSpec
remove some copy pascal to c calls.

sqMacUUIMenuBarUniversal.c
sqMacUnixCommandLineInterface.c
sqMacUnixExternalPrims.c
sqMacWindow.h
sqMacWindowUniversal.c
In ioSetFullScreenActual, use QDLocalToGlobalRect, versus casting
to points
In copy124BitsTheHardWay little versus bit endian for making gworld
sqMacNSPluginUILogic.c
use QDSwapPort versus get/set port for performance reasons
In ioShowDisplayOnWindow avoid double get of windowPort
In recordMouseEvent use QDGlobalToLocalPoint
sqMacNSPlugin.c
Make windowActive = 1, not sure why this didn't fail in the past...
Alter GetTempFSSpec to return both fsspec and FSRef
