Don't run a GUI app as root - it's a horrible, huge, gaping security hole to do so. Besides which, not every app is written in Cocoa. There are still plenty of Carbon apps around - MS Office, for instance, and Adobe's CS apps. None of those have an NSApplication instance, and no matter how hard you try or who you're logged in as, you can't get a reference to something that isn't there. sherm-- -- Cocoa programming in Perl: http://camelbones.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
