Obj-C and Background/Daemon Application Question

[Tom Jones]

Thanks, I read the Technote and I have to agree I see nothing wrong  
with using Obj-C, as long as there is no window server interaction. I  
did get a copy of "Advanced Mac OS X Programming" and that has been a  
very interesting read. From someone really learning Obj-C, I was  
expecting more Obj-C and more explanations.

Well in some round about way my question was answered, I will stick to  
using C code since the examples and documentation are much more  
plentiful. I really have yet to find a really good examples and docs  
on doing it with Obj-C.

Thanks again,
tom
