Introduction

iMalc remembers the value stored in memory, the flavour and window position on quitting.

Versions of iMalc are available for Macintosh PowerPC, 68k and fat binary (runs on both PPC and 68k). A Windows version will be available soon for those who love Macs but have to use Wintel boxes and wish to make a statement :-)

iMalc is shareware and costs just £10/US$15. This means that you may try it for 30 days and must then either register the program and pay for iMalc or delete it from your hard drive.

iMalc runs under Mac OS 7.1 and later. It may work on earlier system versions. iMalc has been tested on a PowerBook G3 and iMac running Mac OS 8.5.1, a G3, iMac and 4400 running 8.6, a 7100/80 running 7.5.3 and a Colour Classic running 7.1.

It requires approximately 5Mb of RAM with virtual memory turned off or 4.5Mb of RAM with virtual memory turned on, and 3.5Mb of hard drive space. You can get by with 3Mb of RAM, but if you cycle through all the flavours, you will need 5Mb of RAM.

iMalc displays best with thousands or millions of colours and using Charcoal as the system font.

iMalc is built using REALbasic from REAL Software Inc, a stunning graphical object orientated Integrated Development Environment for Macintosh, which also ports Macintosh applications to Windows. Other compilers are planned.

The latest version of iMalc can be downloaded from:

The iMalc package should contain the application iMalc, a Read Me file, this iMalc manual, the Register iMalc application and a Registering Read Me.
