I never officially released much after that for Macintosh. I spent
about $18,000 out of my pocket to acquire the source to Pepper from
Maarten. I worked really hard on the mac only version, but then a
company wanted changes to Windows and then an SGI/IRIX version. Linux
and Mac fell by the way side until recently. A database company
licensed the OS X code for use in its SQL Editor and an unreleased
concept.
I started a few months ago looking at Pepper in a more OS X only mind
set. I researched Core Text and other editors functionality. I started
re-writing it in TCL/TK, then became more interested in a Cocoa
version of TCL/TK.
The same with Impression, I recently sold a source code license to a
company here in California that is using it as a foundation for a new
product.
Time to move off list, I just saw Kevins e-mail.
