But Binary_Read/Write is made ONLY for MetaCard,

This function is enabled ONLY when I compile VXCD Carbon + CODE resource for
external.

Now it seems MetaCard do not have Carbon version. ????

Brian, Does now MetaCard PPC also support arrays ?
So does we need enable Binary_ReadData() for classic version of MC ?
This will make problem, that other IDEs as HC do not support this...
I think this will work until somebody call this function from HC.

Ops. Problems!

For VXCMD CARBON, we have used MC headers and API.
Because VXCMD CARBON was intended ONLY for MetaCard.

We cannot enable MC API in XFCN classic version of VXCMD.

It looks like to use MetaCard oriented API in VXCMD, the only way now do
development on X using VXCMD-macho....
Hmm, but how developer will be able create in this case MacOS 9
application???

Scott, Brian, it seems without MC Carbon that works on both Classic and X
and use CODE resource we have loose important part in chain.
