[QUOTE="Brown Study, post: 421689, member: 3889"] TrimTheFat is a freebie that pulls the unneeded PowerPC or Mac Intel code from apps. It can save tons of space. I've seen a couple of warnings about using it, though no specific apps were mentioned. Some may not work after using it. I assume that Quark uses an installer, so if TrimTheFat is safe to use with Quark and you want to get rid of all the extra code besides that in the app folder itself, you'd have to chase down all the files it spreads around the machine. If you use TrimTheFat, set the preferences so it deletes the extra code, not save it. Otherwise, you end up with two versions of the same app, one being completely useless. [/QUOTE]
