All,
Just to prove that I have a fully satisfying social life, I just finished
uploading the changes to the CVS server 3am on a Saturday morning. Now you
get to see a wonderful little service icon on the titlebar, a completely
cosmetic change with absolutely no functionality whatsoever.
Let me know if you like it enough to sponsor me in buying a "learning cocoa"
book. I need all the help I can get. Maybe I'll actually do something useful
next time :-)
Raf.
