Cocoa is for OS X only, while carbon is > classic-based, or can run in classic or X. > Oy. Misinformation. No, it doesn't mean that at all. A lot of Classic apps, like all the Office apps, were carbonized for OS X but do not, of course, run in Classic. it was just a more practical way of adapting Classic apps for OS X then starting all over from the ground up in Cocoa. (Most all-new OS X apps are built in Cocoa.)
A few Classic apps have been made into "FAT" dual-purpose Carbon apps that can run in OS 9 or in OS X. (And if Show Info in OS X has a box to 'start up in Classic mode", then they can run in Classic too.) Entourage X is _not_ one of these. -- Paul Berkowitz -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
