I have been trying to run the Mac version of PAUP 3.1.1 on my SUN workstation
using a Macintosh emulator called Liken. Liken requires access to SUN
Openwindows or other X window interface and creates a Macintosh desktop
window which is supposed to behave like a real Mac running system 6.0.7.
Shrink-wrapped, commercial packages apparently run fine under Liken
(according to the advertisement - I have tried only a few). PAUP 3.1.1 will
install and begin to run. However, executing nearly any of the sample NEXUS
input files (there are 2 exceptions - the 'eucalyptus' and 'vertebrates demo')
will result in a 'system error', followed by a crash and restart of the Liken
window. Running PAUP 3.1.1 on a real Mac with system 6.0.7 works just fine
with the standard memory allocation of 1024K. Does anyone have an idea why
PAUP is causing Liken to crash?
