MAC OS X
|

|

processing runs best with (and probably requires) Mac OS X 10.1 and
|
||||
"Java 1.3.1 Update 1", the latter of which is available as a free
|
||||
update from the "Software Update" control panel. it can also be

downloaded from http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/ or
|
||||
from: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/java131.html
|
||||
the most current release has only been tested on Mac OS X 10.2.2. your
|
||||
mileage may vary if you're running something else. actually, your
|
||||
mileage will vary no matter what, because who knows what this software
|
||||
is gonna do. you're playing with free, alpha software. get psyched!
|
||||
|
||||
with os x 10.2 on its way, you'll no longer need the java update,
|
||||
but we'll have to see if we can afford being gouged $129 for the
|
||||
upgrade in order to do some testing under this cat-themed operating
|

system.

another issue under osx.. it appears that there's a bug in their java

vm with text areas, so as a result, the arrow keys won't work in the

editor. we think this really stinks and are searching for options for
|
||||
a (near?) future release.
|
||||
text area & mouse wheel.. in order to get the text area working in a
|
||||
reasonable fashion, we had to switch to using swing text components
|
||||
because of bugs in apple's java implementation. phooey on apple. the
|
||||
editor in this release should behave much better, but mouse wheel
|

support is disabled until apple finishes an implementation of java

1.4. if this makes you sad, email steve jobs and tell him to make the

java team quit patting themselves on the back and get to work on

finishing 1.4.
