Re: Reverse engineering - confirmed for version 3!



I may have a dusty intel mac somewhere, but I could also just not update the OS on my apple silicon
laptop. But I’d rather not.

I have a VERY OT question (though inspired by all this reverse engineering work):
on Apple silicon. It’s a very simple program: under the UI it’s
just a simple spreadsheet sort of thing. The UI is for calculating bread formulas, with all the
bells and whistles (allowing for pre-ferments,Apple will soon stop supporting such programs in Fall
software updates. I would love to locate a Mac programmer who could future-proof this program for
use on Apple silicon. But I don’t know where to start asking.
Any help would be appreciated. (And I won’t post off-topic again.)

Brilliantly well done, xyghost. This was simply unimaginable until now,
and it's clearly working as designed.
