Apple was using it in their fax software. I'm not sure they ever intended it to be used by people external to Apple, though. They certainly never documented it. I imagine they are no longer using it in their fax software. > Hmm, I saw somewhere the other day that PyObjC comes with 10.5. > Maybe that means there's no longer any point to a separate > CoreGraphics.py? No, they're different things. PyObjC does wrap a Cocoa drawing API, but that API does not cover nearly as much of the CoreGraphics API as CoreGraphics.py did. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
