Now everything seems pretty good, have universal bninary, building both debug 
and release versions, both run as desired under Xcode control.
Program formats output and sends directly to a serial port to a tractor feed 
printer.

However, when I try running from Finder, I get a short few characters out the 
serial port then the program dies. This is whether or not the 'run under 
Rosetta' box is checked in Get Info. Intel or PowerPC shows properly in 
Activity Monitor. I've tried inserting printf in the 'C' code just before the 
write statement but cannot find any output. Also tried fprintf's to stdout and 
stderr. I've tried running the program from Terminal to see if that helped. How 
and where should I be able to see output? Where should a write(var); go from 
the pascal side?

Debug print stuff shows up to the console when running under Xcode.

What should I look for that would cause it to work fine from Xcode but die from 
Finder? Is there specific Finder related code required in all programs that 
perhaps I am missing? At the moment I am building a Carbon app if that makes 
any difference.

MacOS 10.5.6, fpc 2.2.2, Xcode 3.1.2

Info.plist looks like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"

Thx for any tips,
