I have not used glut for any OS X based projects, but my impression is
that if you intend to use no OS facilities in the window you are
interacting with then glutKeyboardFunc() and friends should work just
fine. If you want to use a WebView or anything that expects NSEvents
in that window you are

Hi all,
Thanks for the responses yesterday. They were quite helpful. However,
they have led me down a number of other rivers of thought, and it
seems that there should be a better way to handle the projects I'm
working on than what I had originally planned. I have two main
questions.
If I understand
correctly, there is absolutely no way to do this in XCode without
using Objective C.
Sure, use Carbon. It's likely that's a dead-end in terms of Apple's
evolution of APIs, and it absolutely does not eliminate the requirement of
some Mac-specific code that will not compile

Hi Rush,
Thanks for the advice. Being visually impaired, I haven't been able
to find *ANY* up-to-date Cocoa/Objective C books in an accessible
format. I have a couple of books that were written around 2002-ish,
but have been hesitant to delve into those before being able to

Sorry Josh, I had not read your initial Cocoa, C++, Keyboard input
and Timers post. I assumed you were just a Mac newbie and wasn't
aware of your multitude of obstacles.
Maybe you can use a cross-platform GUI toolkit? There is wxWidgets (http://www.wxwidgets.org/
), FLTK
Hi Rush,
If I could get my hands on a NIB file that consisted of an web kit
control that spanned the window, I suppose I could reuse that across
several projects. This sounds like a fantastic idea for the limited
GUI I need, especially since I have extensive experience in web
