Hi Uli,
Many thanks for the ULMelodyQeuue I am sure it will help me as will the well written pages of usuals pitfalls when porting PC2Mac. Alsp thanks for your your soothing words on what learning routs I should take/choose. I am glad that you thinks the Aaron Hildegass¨s book is a good way to learn Cocoa-programming for the Mac OS X.

If you want to code for the Mac, you will have to write at least the user interface in Objective C. Depending on your level of experience in programming in general, you should be able to write your own Cocoa application once you've worked your way through Hillegass' book. The C++ parts will probably take longer to learn, but if you just want to understand what the original program did and write your own version in C/ObjC, you don't need as deep an understanding.
