Nisus Software, The Omni Group, and Blacksmith announced LinkBack, a
new technology that brings embedded objects to the Mac OS X platform.
LinkBack makes it possible to edit text or graphics pasted from another
application by double-clicking on it. The technology will be included
in future releases of Nisus Writer Express, OmniOutliner, OmniGraffle,
and Chartsmith. It is also available today as an open source SDK for
use by other Mac developers at:
http://www.linkbackproject.org
Other technologies exist to do this, but none of them are widely
support at least in part because they take so much effort to implement
in your application. We designed LinkBack so that it takes the minimal
amount of work to integrate into your own application. If your app is
NSDocument based, it can happen in as little as a few dozen lines of
code.
We are releasing LinkBack open source to encourage as many developers
to support it as possible since this is good for all of our users. If
you do want to add support for LinkBack, be sure you let us know and we
will add your product to the LinkBack website's list of applications.
Cheers,
-Charles
