Ok, hi everybody. I'm thinking with the new Macs unable to boot into OS 9 there will be a greater desire to translate some older programs. Can a G5 even use Classic? Anyway, I believe the process of adding something (plug-in?) to an OS 9 program so it can be used in OS X is called "carbonizing." Where can one learn how to do this? I'm thinking specifically about apps "Outlook Express," for OS 9, which is free, compared to "Entourage" for OS X which is not. There are many who simply do not require the latest bells and whistles as long as they can retain the functions they are use to at a quicker speed. On the Apple OS X download page there are many game plug-ins that allow one to make OS 9 games playable in OS X. So, how does one learn to do this?
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/learncarbon/index.html A very good place to start.
Apple's own developer tools offers a lot of good tips on Carbon http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/ ToolsOvr_Book/IDE/chapter_3_section_4.html
or just use "writing carbon programs for OS X" as a search term and find lots of web related materials.
