SocialsLDEF

A List Manager LDEF (List Definition Function) plus test app for displaying social media posts with bold username and avatar image.

Prerequisites

To build this, you need

• CodeWarrior Pro 6 for Macintosh System 7.0
• A Mac to run it on (or an emulator like Basilisk II or SheepShaver)
• StuffIt 5 to unpack the .sit files
• The HyperCard stack in the CheapVersionControl.sit archive in this repository to copy the .rsrc files back from the data fork into the resource fork, and to convert the source files back from UTF8 with LF to MacRoman with CR line endings. (Its "Revert" button can be used to do this)

How to use in your MacOS 9 app

The file SocialsLDEF/SocialsLDEFData.h contains the SocialsEntry struct that defines what a list cell's data has to look like. Note that the message array is actually a variable-length array that can be any size you want (below 32k) for the text to show.
