Do you have any troubles using SQL*Plus from a Mac? I'm asking because I can start SQL*Plus on my PowerBook (Mac OS 8.1) and enter queries just fine, but when I switch to another application then SQL*Plus crashes (in the _CharToPixel Mac OS trap, if anyone is interested). It is 100% repeatable for me.
