I am looking for a good introductory book for Mac programming.  I have
extensive experience programming for MS Windows.  We are getting ready to
port our product to the Mac and I am looking for a book that will give
me a good starting point.  For those of you who are familiar with MS Windows,
I am looking for a book similar to Petzold`s "Programming Windows".  For
those of you who are not familiar with MS Windows, I am looking for a book
that starts with "hello world" and ends up going into many of the more
useful details of the more general functionality of the environment.
Petzold's book is 944 pages and includes many sample (simple) programs
that demonstrate the points he is trying to make.  I will post any
information I receive in a week or so.  Thanks in advance, Marc
