Essentially yes (Carbon Bundle template), but picky about the renaming parts. Then there are some considerations such as the package type and whether or not a resource file is required (this is true for OSA components and I think for QuickTime ones as well). In the Info.plist for your target you'll see this:

<key>CFBundlePackageType</key>
<string>BNDL</string>

The string value here has to be that of your bundle type (probably 'thng')
Also, I use a .exp file to export the entry point (talking OSA components here).

In the BasicImputMethod example, there used to be a problem with it only having the correct resource definition for PPC. I have saved the necessary change somewhere if it's not been fixed.

Thanks for the tip!  I guess I will just play around with the settings and try installing it until I can get it to work.

I have another basic question.  In the BasicInputMethod example BIM.r, the 16x16 icons are listed are 16-bit hex values (array) in the the file (ics#, ics4, ics8, kcs#, kcs4, kcs8).  Is there an XCode/IB tool that allows one to create such icons and converts the icon to the data arrays?
