Seeing new software being released for the classic Mac is freakin' awesome, please keep up the great work. I just wish Macintosh (either 68k or PowerPC) emulators improved a bit more, I no longer have a functioning machine and they're not getting any cheaper.

Leave that page open in a tab without moving your mouse over the window for a couple minutes for a cute little treat.
If they could be given network access, and permitted to install software, would be so awesome!!! :)

This is brilliant. I’ve been tempted to get my Macintosh SE online just for fun and this would be a great use for it. Permanent little IRC terminal.

I just love new software for old machines (especially multi-tasking systems).

I wonder how JCS didn't write a Gopher client. I know there are several, but he might
add some nice features such as converting most Unicode chars
to Mac-Roman or whatever did Mac OS
use in the 90's.

I love that they also wrote a VCS for classic Mac OS, a GitHub equivalent for it and also self-host on that too.

So now the classic Mac has a nicer IRC client than the latest macOS.

How long does it take to verify the SHA256 sum on an System 6 Mac?

Even the icon is well thought out.

Writing software for old systems can sometimes be frustrating, but mostly it is SO nice. The target was usually quite simple and you don't have to deal with all the extra obstacles and choices that are obligatory today when running software on a bazillion different systems.
Not even having the option to deal with unicode can be such a breath of fresh air.

Tried reading the source code on their website and every line of source has a scrollbar under it, making it very difficult to read. Not sure what caused this, zooming out doesn't help.
