On a box with a Classic partition and a second one for OS X, I tried starting Classic-AW from within Jaguar. To my surprise, it worked perfectly. Since, I have stopped installing a separate AW on OS X. And, another peculiarity: One and the same app shows up as 6.2.8 under Mac OS 9.2 and as 6.2.9 under Jaguar! Steff
