I'm still forming my opinion on strong and static typing, but I really find it interesting how in two environments I follow, folks moving from dynamic typing in an ECMA environment like Actionscript 1-2 to a more strongly typed Actionscript 3 are really excited about it and in Mac development C, C++...

Hey Lloyd, I talked with NAB about doing some path coercion to the user folder or even application support, but I'm reluctant to do that because of the support issues that path munging involves with people who aren't very technical. I spend a lot of time supporting users of my open source stuff, and...

Hey zold, did a quick check in the SDK guide. Since I'm using XCode I'm pretty sure this won't work on 6.5 since I'm generating a Mach-0 bundle package which started support in 7.0. Do you have access to Code Warrior? I don't have a copy so I can't generate a CFM binary. Anybody else have ideas for ...

... Not working on my Intel Mac with AE6.5. Intel Mac the problem? Or the fact that I'm running v6.5? ... Hey Zoid, Was wondering about that when I was putting the package together.
