I'm writing a program where I'd like to signal progress by using the
two arrows which twirl (seen in Mail.app when fetching letters) and
which can be clicked for further detailed status information.
However I can't find this element in IB nor the Cocoa class
documentation. Is this a Carbon-only element?
No, it isn't a standard control in Cocoa yet, although it really should
be by now. Apple have said that they'll add it someday. If you want to
hasten this process, file a bug.
And does it mean that Mail.app and OmniWeb are both written using
Carbon?
They're certainly both Cocoa apps. They just implement the control
themselves. You can download the source for OmniWeb's
implementation--it's a class called OAChasingArrows in OmniAppKit.
