[mac-lisp-ide] Whither CLIM/Cocoa?

[Duncan Rose]

It's... progressing 8-)  Still some glitches in text display even (for 
some reason "class::object" is being rendered as "clas : object" on 
entry, though it does get updated correctly most of the time afterwards 
(it *only* affects repeat characters, the first being rendered and all 
others not (initially) - I'm hoping McCLIM is being too clever for my 
own good and this will be sorted once copy-area is implemented).

Drawing lines + rectangles works, so you can do "show class 
superclasses" etc and get a sensible graph. Unfortunately scrolling 
isn't (dependent on copy-area again) so you can't see much of the graph 
if it's large. Mouse events work, so you can roll over the 
presentations and manipulate them.

There's no pixmap support, and only key events involving printing 
characters are working at the moment.
Event handling does a lot of busy waiting, and menus don't work.

Other than that it's nearly usable ;-)
