hey i know sparkedit was written in xcode and was wondering if anybody could give me tips on reading binary file data using OBJ-C.

i've seen the tutorial at http://www.eschaton.softcor.net/ but i can't seem to find the docs on doing it with Objective-C.


any help would be appreciated :)

try getting some books first, learn how to make a text editor before you make a new sparkedit.

Or you could do what I did and learn how to run before you could walk.

I just opened up the Sparkedit code, looked at it until I understood the syntax of the language, and away I went. Granted, I knew C and how to program in an object-oriented manner beforehand, but its nothing too terrible.

I just don't like the memory management, it still gives me fits.
