I am often asked in email how I uncovered the API calls I use in Desktop Manager which are, unfortunately, undocumented. I am indebted to these people and would like to thank them for their hard work. It also means I have to attempt to reverse engineer something I don’t have in front of me. Instead I have relied on a network of people I correspond with via my blog to tell me when things break.
This proved a little bit of a problem for me since I have no copy of Tiger to test with and don’t wish to risk Apple’s wrath by obtaining a less-than-legitimate copy. Recently it became apparent that it would no longer work under Apple’s forthcoming Tiger release of OS X. It provides virtual desktops to those refugees from Unix like myself :). I have written (and continue to write) an application called Desktop Manager for OS X.
