Virtual Desktops

[aishafenton]

That’s it! I have had enough of waiting for someone else to write a virtual desktop program for OsX. So I'll write one myself

(I don't want it to be like Space.app. Space.app is a great little hack, but I want to have true virtual desktops.)

I am a programmer, but I haven't had much experience with programming for OsX yet. So can someone please point me in the right direction to get started with this. I have been poking around in the Cocoa libraries - but it is all high level stuff. I guess I would be needing something pretty low level.

Can anyone suggest where to start with this?

Thanks, Aisha

Core Graphics Services and you'll probably have to figure out a lot of Windowserver stuff which is private.
