Re: Adding menu to right side of system menu bar

Hi,

I'm new to the MAC world and have been following this thread and this
newsgroup to, perhaps, get some idea of how to start. I will be developing an
app that will need to run on both OS 9 and OS X. Apple docs seem to imply
that carbon is the way to start. Any suggestions? Am I even in the correct
place to ask this question?

Thanks

Neil
