About

Hsoi's App Shell was a big learning tool for me to learn how to write MacOS applications in C using Metrowerks CodeWarrior. I felt that it might be of use to other people, so I wanted to have it publicly available to the MacOS development community. So, what can Hsoi's App Shell do or show you how to do? - How to use WASTE, Marco Piovanelli's WorldScript Aware Styled Text Engine as a replacement text engine for TextEdit - How to use the WASTE Object Handlers - How to use Gestalt to properly check for system capabilities - How to use UniversalProcPtr's (both usage and how to create your own!) - How to have code that works on both 68k and PPC based Macintoshes - How to read from and write to files - How to use CustomGet/PutFile routines with your own custom dialog filters - How to use Aliases and take advantage of the Alias Manager - How to Save, Save As, and Revert files - How to properly deal with locked files - How to take advantage of temporary files and FSpExchangeFiles for safe saving techniques - How to use nifty functions like FindFolder - How to properly work with resources and the Resource Manager - How to add name strings to help orphaned document files - How to do submenus - How to do dynamic menus (menus created at runtime, like a Windows menu) ...and lots more Hope it's useful to you!!
