Mac OS X

[Jeffrey Stopple <stopple@math.ucsb.edu>]

OK, so I'm using GP 2.0.12 alpha PowerPC version on the Macintosh 
with OS X version 10.0.3.  This solves the pre-emptive multitasking 
problem nicely.  Two new questions arise:

OS X insists on running GP in 'Classic' mode.  Is this really necessary?

And GP is now spectacularly unstable, worse than under OS 9.  For 
example, it will cause the mouse icon to disappear off the screen. 
And OS X has disabled the hard restart button!  You must click the 
mouse on 'Force quit', which requires a lot of patience when the 
mouse is invisible.   GP will also make all the pull down menus 
vanish.   Any advice?
