Just a note to let you all know what is happening with OSX updates.
After having worked on carbonizing ScrapIt Pro and EZNote for several months (as I could, discovering how tedious carbonizing can be!) as well as learning to program natively for Cocoa (using Apple's development environment, Project Builder and Interface Builder), I have decided to scrap doing the carbonizing (pun intended! ;-) and go direct to creating entirely native OSX application versions of ScrapIt Pro and EZNote.
ScrapIt Pro:
The first native version will be lacking some of the features the current version has, such as Quickdraw 3d and forms.
EZNote:
The release of EZNote will follow soon after ScrapIt Pro is released.
Other programs :
I plan to continue to support and update the classic versions of all my utilities as well as create new and continue to create OSX versions of several of my other utilities.
I still do not have a release date yet, but will post new information as it becomes available.
Thank you for your patience! :-)
