The only Cocoa—>Carbon Finder transition I know of was before 10.0 shipped. The development versions had a NeXT file manager with a Mac UI skin, but before release that was replaced with a Carbon-ized port of (a subset of) the MacOS 9 Finder. That Finder lived on for a few years before being replaced by a new rewritten Cocoa version. —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
