Yes, it was very painful, but the new version is very responsive. (The only way I had found to deal with "live resizing" compelled Devdraw to swap the back buffer and the front buffer each time plan9 was flushing rectangles to the back buffer, and dreadful was the latency.) Just after my "I will be late" announcement, Russ advised me to publish all the same what I had, because Carbon's Devdraw apparently also stopped working on Snow Leopard with the latest Xcode. I was in the middle of "live resizing" madness, and my code was very experimental, but I forgot to mention it on 9fans. Sent from my gesture-enhanced Acme.
