1. Makes any PC useful again.

2. Can be launched under almost any release of x86/x64 Windows (from 3.1 to 11), ReactOS and Wine.

3. Built with Borland C++ 4.5 compiler. Makefile for everything else.

4. Source is easily customizable for your needs.

The binaries were updated and now include all the slices:

lipo -info TinyClock.app/Contents/MacOS/TinyClock Architectures in the fat file: TinyClock.app/Contents/MacOS/TinyClock are: i386 x86_64 ppc64 ppc arm64

This requires some investigation. Technically, I believe it is possible if the following 2 conditions are met:

1. The Mach-O executable format was not changed between all those OS versions (likely).

2. It is possible to gather sub-binaries for one CPU type but different OS types (less likely).

And SDK's and compillers (in emulator or on hardware) are required to try.

Netop is a simple (less 1k SLOC) utility to transfer files over the network. No pre-existing infrastructure except tcp-connectivity is needed. Can be easily ported almost everywhere.

As a matter of fact, already ported to Unix (including Android) and Windows. Has prebuilt binaries and the source available.

What's even cooler is the following. The OS X "Universal" binary supports 5 hardware platforms (ppc, ppc64, i386, x86_64, arm64) - every OS X capable hardware known to mankind. And will run natively everywhere from Jaguar on G3 to the BigSur+ on Apple Silicon.

Handy to use when transferring large amounts of data from one PC to another. Super useful for retro computer file sharing.
