Previous sample project xcode instructions:

  How we created the xcode project that compiles this, too:

  New Project -> Mac OS X -> Application -> Cocoa Application

  Save as...

  Add to "Other sources/SWELL": (from swell path) swell-dlg.mm swell-gdi.mm swell-ini.cpp swell-kb.mm swell-menu.mm swell-misc.mm swell-miscdlg.mm swell-wnd.mm swell.cpp swell-appstub.mm swellappmain.mm

  Add app_main.cpp main_dialog.cpp to "Other sources"

  Go to Frameworks -> Linked Frameworks, add existing framework, Carbon.Framework

  go to terminal, to project dir, and run <pathtoswell>/swell_resgen.pl sample_project.rc

  Open mainmenu.xib in Interface Builder (doubleclick it in XCode)

    + Delete the default "Window"
    + File->Read class files, find and select "swellappmain.h"
    + Go to Library, Objects, scroll to "Object" , drag to "MainMenu.xib", rename to "Controller", then open its
      properties (Cmd+Shift+I, go to class identity tab), choose for Class "SWELLAppController".
    + Select "Application" in MainMenu.xib, go to (Cmd+Shift+I) application identity tab, select "SWELLApplication" for the class.

    + Customize the "NewApplication" menu.
       + Properties on "About NewApplication":
         + set the tag to 40002 (matching resource.h for about)
         + on the connection tab, "Sent Actions", remove the default connection, then drag a new connection to controller (onSysMenuCommand).
       + Properties on "Quit NewApplication":
         + set the tag to 40001 (matching resource.h for quit)
         + on the connection tab, "Sent Actions", remove the default connection, then drag a new connection to controller (onSysMenuCommand).
    + Delete the file/edit/format/view/window/help menus, if you like (or keep some of them if you want)

    + Save and quit IB

  Go to Targets->sample_project, hit cmd+I, go to "Properties", and change Principal class to "SWELLApplication"
