Unless the Carbon programmer spent a CONSIDERABLE amount of time working
around those many Carbon problems, very easily, trying just
- drag&drop
Drag & Drop is easy with Carbon. Debugging Drag & Drop in Mac OS 9 was
not.
- Services
Services can now be accessed from Carbon App (there's a TN on this topic
I think).
- mouse roller
There are some Carbon events for this IIRC.
- Unicode keyboard
?
- etc, etc, etc.
You mean access to /etc ? ;-)
Frankly, except for Table Views, I don't see any differences.
Even if the Carbon programmer went *extremely* far in supporting all
this,
still the user might just try to use Mike Ferris' TextExtras (or any
other
thing based on the same principle, like mine OCSmart Hacks), and that's
that...
The WindowShade hack was working first with Carbon application. So the
fact that a hack is working only one API is not really a big difference.
