• Useful Information - X11 Fix for Leopard (10.5)

  Some users have reported problems on recent versions of Leopard (10.5) which cause ReportWriter to not load properly. There are a number of symptoms, including an inability to type text in ReportWriter, or your dock "blinking" repeatedly after attempting to run ReportWriter. Apple has released a fix which should solve this and related problems, so try this if you experience "strangeness" running ReportWriter. Perform the following steps exactly:

  1. Reboot your Macintosh.
  2. Download this package and install it.
  3. Reboot your Macintosh, again.
  4. ReportWriter should run without problem.

• Encoded Source Files (for Linux/Unix)You can use ReportWriter on your Linux/Unix system. We haven't yet built an installer yet, but instructions are avaiable here
