Standalone Problems for OSX and OS9 apps

[Stephen Barncard]

Why on earth won't a simple file read work in Classic? Even Hypercard 
works fine in classic! that is the most basic thing a program can do! 
Is this a bug?

And this of course does not address the printing differences noted in 
OSX. Why would any of that be different?
