Translate code from Mac to PC

[Jim Hurley]

Hi Bernd,

Good to hear from you again. 

Actually I didn't mean to send the *three* card version of Kaleidoscope. There was a lot of card two that many others contributed critically to, yourself, not the least among them. So I don't feel right about presenting that to the library as my own. But I think the kids will have fun with card 1 alone. There is just something intrinsically please about symmetry for its own sake. The Radio City Musical Hall Rockets have been making a living off symmetry for years. 

I don't think I have see evidence of  6.5. Is that out and generally available? I thought 6.2 was the latest. 

I'm haven't really been keeping up. I haven't even moved off into the portable stuff for iOS. It aggravates me no end that I would have to pay tribute to Apple if I just want to write an app for my own use on my own iPod or Pad.  I would be willing to pay for the tools to do that, but not for a continuing toll, and, insult to injury, pass it through their filter. Everything I do is for personal use. There is no need for Apple to get involved in how I use their products.

I don't mean to imply that that plain old OS X is limiting. I still get a lot of use and entertainment from plain old vanilla LC. I'm not even sure that I would be up to programming for iOS in the first place; there is something that happens to the mind, a toll taken, after it has exceeded 81 years of use and abuse. 

Kind regards,

Jim
