Yes, there are many obvious interface similarities there. My point is that there's a difference that's not so obvious. On Windows, there's a services list where you can start or stop services, and change them to start automatically, as needed, or only when started manually. There's no such centralized list on the Mac - its moral equivalent is *also* your app's preference pane, if of course you want to provide a GUI start/stop button at all. If your app is a server app and you're pretty sure your audience is experienced admins, you could probably just provide a sample plist for managing your app with launchd. sherm-- _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
