Matt would likely know the facts.
That was my understanding too. There was some big fuss where apple announced they were moving to 64bit and not porting carbon forward. I took that to mean that the long-deprecated carbon would not be working on future versions of OS X, which lead to the brouhaha about adobe photoshop not being updated for the new version because they didn't want to port to cocoa. Is it just the quickdraw stuff? If it's just "vestigal bits" then hopefully getting rid of them won't be too hard. I don't have a snow leopard machine myself (and now I'm afraid to upgrade!) but I'd be willing to take a look at porting forward the ancient bits. If 64 bit is now mandatory on new macs then porting is inevitable anyway. If you can still compile 32 bit and link to the old quickdraw, then it's not so urgent but still a good idea... _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
