Hi, Expressive Indigo -
I downloaded KiGB v. 1.5.2. In the included file "About the Shell" it states -
<hr>
About
The enclosed emulator uses the Macintosh Emulator Port Shell by Richard Bannister. This has a common feature set between all supported emulators, which this document attempts to cover briefly.
System Requirements
Emulators using this shell require Mac OS X 10.1 or later.
<hr>
It appears that version is not suitable for OS 9, either. I downloaded a few more versions - the last one which states it will work in OS 8.6 or later is KiGB v. 1.4.3; all later versions include OSX in their requirements.
