ObjectSupportLib, preferably version 1.2, is included in the CFM68K package.
available at http://www.macos.apple.com/macos/cfm-68k.html, as is a suitable
version of AppleScriptLib.

Is your AppleScriptLib version 1.2.2? It should be.

>>As I was under the impression that AppleScriptLib was a PPC thing,

It's a CFM thing, but if you caught too old a version, it doesn't support
CFM68K.

This is probably version 1.1, which is too old.

No, it doesn't. Sorry that military service related bandwidth restrictions
prevented me from answering you sooner.

I'd like to hear about that as well (But I had some problems getting a viable
CFM68K installation running myself).
