All of those would be great to have, in particular 2006r2. 2006r3 would be the ideal version, but having the others can also help. Although I hear that 2006r1 was very buggy compared to its predecessor, 5.5.5. Having 2006r4 might also help since it should make it easy to port to 2006r3 if I move the project to a PPC Mac with it installed, at least for compiling.
On that note, I believe we also have 5.5.3 for Windows, but I don't think I have seen 5.5.5 for it. Couldn't hurt to keep that one as well, if we ever crossed ways with it.
Are these now considered collectible? 
With exception of Windoze and Greystash, I haven't seen anyone compiling and releasing OS9 stuff lately.. 
Whoa, thanks! You even put 5.5.5 in there, I'm awed you even had that one! This
IS much like collecting "cards" or something, and then trading them with people who may have other cards you want, isn't it...
I don't expect myself to make anything as amazing as what Greystash and others made, but for starters I'm getting my feet wet with an app supposed to make Mini vMac a lot more useful (within OS 9, but other platforms also benefit, due to the amazing nature of REALbasic). You see, my biggest beef with Mini vMac is how the app has NO configuration, instead it has a
collection of compile-time settings. There's an app, a "Mini vMac Source Code Preparer" of sorts, which takes a bunch of arguments so that it spits out a StuffIt file with the ADAPTED source code with all the compile-time settings you chose. Then compiling via MPW is
very straightforward. Thing is, this procedure is a PAIN when you just want a different resolution, color depth, emulated Mac model or whatever. Remembering all the valid command line options, and selecting valid combinations of commands, and all valid values for the arguments... it is very painful each time you revisit. So I want to destroy that burden, and make it stupid easy.
My RB 5.5.5 program already spits out a text file with the command line arguments, so now it's just a matter of grabbing all the possible values and options for the final Mac-OS-9-compatible version (Mini vMac 3.5.8 ), lists of which were removed from the official website for no good reason. I retrieved them from archive.org, and now am gluing them all in.
After this ultra simple project, I will see where to go next.
Hopefully something more generally useful?
Can't attach 2006r2 OSX, although I should. 37MB. Maintenance issues?
2006r4 versions (Win, Linux) are ~95MB and too big to attach here.
Perhaps the following page would be suitable for those other versions, if you have a Macintosh Garden account:
http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/realbasic-1x-2x-3x-4x-5xIt is a page which has been refactored to include more and more REALbasic versions. Since we have a
different page for 2007 and up (separated from the rest, since Xojo Inc. still hosts such versions themselves), 2006 and earlier would make perfect sense in that existing page. (If you put those files there, I can update the description for it soon after, to save you some time.)
