Ircle comes in 3 flavors: Classic 68k, Classic PPC, and OS X.
- The Classic 68k version is made for (older) Apple Macintoshes with an 680x0 type
processor, running Mac OS 7.0 through 8.1.
This version will not run on Mac OS X.
It will be discontinued in the near future.
- The Classic PPC version is written for PowerPC Macintoshes running Mac OS 7.5 through 9.2.2.
This version will not run on Mac OS X.
- The OS X version is meant only for Mac OS X 10.2 or newer. From October 2006 this version will be Universal Binary, meaning that it will run on both Intel and IBM PowerPC based Macs.

your Classic Ircle preferences and face files, if any.
