It might just end with that.... :( Sound is an important thing with MOD players/Trackers! The code is mainly written in C++. Do you believe I should learn C++ and Cocoa with/on Objective C before I start? It will be fun, but take some time... I think I¨ll start reading Aarnn Hilegass:s book on Cocoa programming. May be you can tell me if there are any other book on Cocoa Programming. /John _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
