Re: W3Kit and 2d drawing

Hi Jeff,

I'm glad W3Kit is useful for you!  What sorts of biological graphics  
are you folks interested in putting on the web?

Yes, I just put together a 2D demo for you that goes through all the  
motions necessary for a real 2D app, but doesn't actually do anything  
complicated (it just draws a dot of adjustable size wherever the user  
clicks).  I'm forwarding the source code for this example in the next  
email.

Well, since this is a common question, I'm starting to put together a  
little "crash course" in Objective-C for the W3Kit docs.  Rest  
assured, it is a lot easier than learning C++.  Take a look at the  
current rough draft
	http://www.geom.umn.edu/docs/W3Kit/ObjectiveC.html
and let me know if it helps.  This page also contains a link to the  
on-line Objective-C FAQ.

Actually, for W3Kit-specific questions, it's better to write directly  
to me.
