I have this overwhelming urge to port one of my favourite OSS apps (not saying which, don’t want to get any-ones hopes up) to the mac, with a completely overhauled interface, in cocoa by my design. I attempted to start it today and surprise surprise, didn’t get very far before giving up. Well maybe not forever but for the moment. Trying to make your way around other peoples code, around a project you’ve never seen the source of before has to be one of the most stressful activities. You start off so optimistic but EVERYTIME that optimism is turned to desperation, trying to piece the puzzle together. Hate jigsaws. I got so stressed that I started to scratch and had to give up, it was doing my skin no good at all. haha. Ah well. I think it was exacerbated by trying to import the project into xcode, which I’m still not entirely buddy buddy with and I had a great deal of trouble getting it to adhere to the include paths. It kept telling me it couldn’t find some header files and I was pointing to the screen yelling “They’re there! I’ve showed you them already!” Ah well.
