Mac users

DO NOT UPGRADE to 10.15 (Catalina) yet!

Please see the Catalina FAQ.

Windows Users

You got nothin' to worry about, since Windows continues to support 32 bit apps, and probably won't stop for a very long time.
After the 64bit transition, you will be automatically upgraded to the 64bit version of kJams.

Sorry for any confusion.
