Out of curiosity, I just downloaded the windows package
as well. The archive appears to be a Mac Stuffit file,
but WinZip managed to extract it just the same. I downloaded
the AIM manual in PDF format, too.
Following the directions in the manual (a mistake, probably), I
added the AIM folder to my path and typed "aim". I
immediately crashed. Can't find the AIM logo. Ah, oh.
OK, start the program from the aim directory. Logo is
there. Program is running. Dynamite!
Load a sample image. Try some image processing
functionality. Oh, oh. Program immediately crashed
with subscript range errors. :-(
Quick look at the code. Yikes! Common blocks! In
a widget program!?
I think I'll wait for version 2. :-)
Cheers,
David
