As another developer who procrastinated on converting the GUI for a large
application away from Carbon, I have also found this discussion to be highly
illuminating. My excuse is that I'm an academic, and while the users of my
software appreciate the GUI, the absolute last way I want to spend

problem that I get with TextEdit (OSX 10.6.4).
If you don't see the unresponsiveness that I see, I'd be *very* interesting in

Doug or Aki can chime in with a solution.
Thanks for a very informative reply.

I'm beginning the conversion of a scientific app from Carbon to Cocoa, and have
run into a problem with NSTextView. FWIW, I have it embedded in an
NSScrollView that is in turn included as an HICocoaView in a Carbon window (but
I don't think this is relevant to my problem). It works, but I've
