Just wanted to add my appreciation for whomever is keeping Carbon going as well. I started programming for Macs on a Mac Plus, way back in the dark ages, I guess--back when info about how to program for Macs was on flimsy newsprint pages that were handed around from person to person who was "in the know." Each time Apple has decided to entirely change the way we need to program for Mac, I've stuck with it, painful though the changes have been over the years. But at this point, I feel like I'm old enough that when Carbon no longer works, I'm done for. I'm also a one-person shop, which has a lot of advantages in terms of quality control and taking responsibility, but also obviously some disadvantages. Have to say I started programming for Windows in 1998, and for the most part, the code I wrote then still works perfectly now. Some real advantages to programming for Windows, but still hoping I don't need to give up on Macs, so PLEASE keep Carbon going for those of us who have been so loyal for so long!

My Carbon apps may never be able to be completely rewritten without years of work by a one-man company, so the fact that they continue to work, and I can continue to update them and more importantly, sell and support them, is fantastic. I know that Apple is probably itching to pull the trigger on Carbon, so if Eric is the man (or one of them) who is somehow helping to keep it going, my profound thanks. I'm also using PowerPlant, but I always designed my own dialogs and buttons, so I guess I didn't run into this issue. Everything worked on Yosemite - yay! - Stephen Kay _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
