Hi I want to make allowances for Mac Intel machines because the PrintOMatic
lite xtra isn't ready for D11. So, I wanted to see if I could tell the
difference between platforms and run alternative code for macs or even if there
were a way of telling differences bet. intel and ppc? What would the code look
like? many thanks.

You can tell what sort of machine it is by checking 'the platform'

put the platform
-- "Windows,32"

if the platform contains "win" then
--do something for Windows
else
--do something for Mac
end if

On D10, all Macs will appear as PPC. If you have D11, I believe it will
tell you which one is running.

That's splendid, thank you. You are right. If you
'put the platform' in D11 it returns -- "Macintosh,Intel".
That makes everything a lot simpler.
Thanks again
Bob
