Thanks @snowie2000, good call. The new installer is in the git and should now clean up old 32-bit installations but will also need testing. I'll add other items I'm responsible for later...

This project is dead?

[sammilucia]

@SHN3RT no... we just need more developers. the few people who work on MacType (and it's mostly @snowie2000) do it in our spare time.

MacType is very reliable and a lot of people use it (more than 10k). Was there something specific you were looking for?

@sammilucia I'm not good at programming but I would translate Mactype from English to Polish. Is it an option to volunteer with translation?
