thanks for the post. This might be useful.

What does everyone use to run the watchtower library on mac?
(i really don't want to install windows, just for one program)

I am not currently running it on my MacBook. :-(

I have tinkered a bit with Darwine. But haven't put my mind to get it working.

I am sort of hoping that the next version of OSX will be able to run .exe code, that is the rumor. We should find out more at the developers conference (Aug 1-11).

Here are some links... to running Darwine.

I bought virtual PC with windows XP home just to run the WT library.

I love it. Download the PowerPC version and the readme says: Important Warning: YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RUN WINDOWS APPLICATION USING IT ON POWERPC HARDWARE USING THIS RELEASE.
