> (v1.0)
* DL #1: Navigation Services v1.0f4c3 SDK (Beta) in a Disk Copy 6
image file enclosed in a StuffIt v5.5 ".sit" archive.
* DL #2: Navigation Services v1.0 SDK in a Disk Copy 6 image file
enclosed in a StuffIt v5.5 ".sit" archive.
Perhaps of interest in DL's #1 & #2, is that it contains the source
code and make files for SimpleText v1.4d16 (both 68k and PPC).
Compatibility
Architecture: 68k PPC
Navigation Services requires [Mac OS 7.5.5][1] or newer and
[Appearance 1.0.1][2] or newer.
Navigation Services v1.0 SDK contains both 68k and PPC code and make
files in CodeWarrior and MPW source, plus precompiled binaries, of
Application examples and System Extensions and Libraries.
Being v1.0 and earlier, your mileage will definitely vary.
