David:
Having worked on "Appearance Parade" some time ago, my suggestion is
that you tackle the learning curve and begin the conversion to
Carbon. Once you get the hang of appearance controls, you'll find
them flexible and easy to work with. PG, as fine as it was, is
obsolete.
Working with Carbon controls as implemented in FB^3 is not difficult.
Rather than looking at your code as a whole, take the conversion one
function at a time. Functions with algorithms probably will need
little change. Functions that control the GUI with windows, buttons
and other controls, may be a little more tricky. Test the completed
results in the Console or using the "Subs Quick Event Loop.Incl" and
move on to the next function.
If you get stuck, post your question here and rest assured it will be
answered very quickly. In the process, your coding skills will
rapidly improve.
If you like, post a few functions here and we'll get you started with
the conversion.
Best,
Ken
