Is MCP safe to use with 3.9, and do I still need mcpramlibpatch in my startup?
Yes, but there are two things you should be aware of with MCP: • First, make sure that you don’t have any options in MCP that patch diskfont.library, as this will prevent 3.9’s font cache from working correctly. You still need mcpramlibpatch in your startup as the ramlib problem is caused by third-party libraries performing too complicated/stack-hungry tasks (opening other diskresident libs) within their init function. These libraries are therefore breaking certain programming rules; and it’s not a bug in ramlib itself. [Stephan Rupprecht] • Lastly, activating the “Processor” feature of MCP removes the ability of the RAD: device to be resident, so switching this off in MCP will restore it.
