Re: [MacPerl] MacPerl and OS X (yet again :-)

Hmmm..
I was sure that the new IE (not on the market yet) that Steve Jobs was showing
off was a true Cocoa app running under OS X. this from my previous employment at
Apple working with earlier versions of OS X. As employees we had the opportunity
to experience IE as a Cocoa app; pretty functional. It had also been demoed at
MacWorld, so it shouldn't be anything hush-hush.

Obviously, the current marketed product of IE _is_ a carbon app running only
under OS9.

BTW: Cocoa apps use packages instead of bundles if that is any help...
