I'm trying to run an older version of MCL on my Powerbook 5300ce under
System 8.1 and it seems to hang on launch. Is there a way to get MCL
2.0.1 to run under OS8.1 on a PPC?

Thanks,
David Betz

I'm not sure there is a way for it on MacOS 8.1. I would not recommend trying
it. 2.0.1 is an old 68k version which will run very slowly
(due to the slow 68k-emulation) and not very reliably -
if at all. If you can, you should upgrade to the PowerPC native version.

The latest PowerPC native version is MCL 4.2. The latest 68k version
is MCL 3.3.

Digitool can give you more information, I guess.
