Hi Uli,
Thanks for the answer.
Do you think using Nokia (trolltech) Qt (it supports CSS controls
styling) might be a bad idea? It's pretty easy to customize looks, it
seems. I am not sure about the native "look and feel" of such an
application though..

It's been a while. But I must have had a bad day doing NSScroller, because I later found out simpler ways of doing some things, so don't quote me on this and ignore it if it works for you.
