AutoQuit is used to assist in &ldquo;wrapping&rdquo; an application so that you can use it much as you would a native application for your machine. As described on the AutoQuit page, wrapping an application involves setting it to be the Start Up application on a System 6 or earlier boot disk. However, some applications can not be set to be the Start Up application, presumably due to the bug of not initializing everything that needs to be. (For example, <a href="http://www.folklore.org/StoryView.py?project=Macintosh&amp;story=Alice.txt">Alice</a>, the first Macintosh game. Or at least the version I&rsquo;ve seen, which might be an early version as it lacks features described in the article.) </p> <p> To use DoLaunch, rename the problem application to &ldquo;app&rdquo;, copy the DoLaunch application to the same folder, and set DoLaunch to be the Start Up application. Then you can use the rest of the instructions on the <a href="../autoquit/index.html">AutoQuit</a> page. </p> <p> See the <a href="../../appc/index.html">Compiling</a> page for instructions on compiling DoLaunch from the source code. </p> <p> <a name="alpha"> <b>Alpha version</b> in development </a> </p> <p> The binary of the Alpha version is so far identical to the stable version above, but the source code is different, being ported to <a href="../reasm/index.html">ReAsm</a>. </p> <p> Download Alpha </p> <blockquote> <p> <a href="https://www.gryphel.com/d/minivmac/extras/dolaunch/dolaunch191208.zip">dolaunch191208.zip</a> (<a href="https://www.gryphel.com/d/minivmac/extras/dolaunch/dolaunch191208.inf.txt">info</a>) a zipped hfs disk image and checksum file.
