Getting Started

• Build the mpw tool in this repository according to the instructions in the Readme.md
• Get a copy of MPW for classic MacOS (see Wiki page).
• Create a folder ~/mpw.
• Copy the files from the verbatim folder in this repository into it (so you have e.g. a ~/mpw/Environment.text file, not ~/mpw/verbatim/Environment.text).
• Open the file Environment.text with a text editor and change the MPWVersion ?= 3.2 line to match whatever version your MPW Shell application shows if you choose Get Info on it in Finder.
• Open the Interfaces&Libraries folder from your copy of MPW, and copy the Interfaces, Libraries, DebuggingLibraries and RuntimeLibraries folders inside it to your ~/mpw folder (so you have e.g. a ~/mpw/Interfaces/CIncludes folder).
• open the MPW folder and copy the Tools folder from there to your ~/mpw folder (so you have e.g. a ~/mpw/Tools/AboutBox file).
• install the mpw tool using:

  % cd build
  % cmake --install .

Your MPW should now be ready for use and installed in /usr/local/bin (and therefore in your $PATH). You can now e.g. create a Makefile that uses the mpw tool for building to actually build an application.
