Gestalt codes in MacOS are global settings, similar to environment variables in Unix and DOS.

Many applications and system extensions install a so-called Gestalt Selector that give other apps and the user some information about their state.

As an example, Mac OS always installs a Gestalt Selector with code "sysv", which returns the currently running system version.

Note: This plugin becomes obsolete in RB 2.0.1, which offers a built-in function for this task ("System.Gestalt").

Requirements:
REALbasic.
