Hi Everyone,

I m new to xcode, i m using xcode 3.2 and os x 10.6.
I just want to convert my tool which is in binary form now to an .app format file.

I have tried to create an .app file through cocoa, which resulted in a main window executing its own executable.
How to make it executing my tool executable file without any main window or executing nothing other than my tool.

If your tool has no window or GUI of its own, then it does not need to be an .app. (For example, if there is a separate GUI app which runs your tool to perform some task.) It can be an ordinary unix-style executable.

If the tool shows windows, but you are getting an extra "main" window when you make your tool into an .app, you can simply delete the unwanted window from the main .nib file. (You still probably need the main .nib file in order to set up your menu bar.)

You mentioned on filesystem-dev that this is a Python tool, is this right? Is it a Cocoa-Python (pyobjc) program, or is it a plain Python program?
