Everyday Software is pleased to announce an update to its Carbon Events
plug-in. This version adds support for long file names, allowing REALbasic
applications to fully support them under Mac OS X with this plug-in. Full
changes include the following:

- Added SetLongFileName folderItem method to set a folderItem's name to a
long file name and optionally hide it's file extension.
- Added GetLongFileName folderItem method to get a folderItem's long file
name.
- Added MakeSheetTranslucent method which makes a sheet window background
translucent (very limited in it's functionality).
- Added default location & hide file extension parameters to AskPutFile.
- Added ModalAskPutFile & ModalGetPutFileReply for use of a modal save
dialog.
- Changed GetFolderItemByType to a global method instead of an app class
method.
- Changed AskPutFile to support long file names; now it creates the actual
folderItem file for the user.
*To write to the file and preserve it's long file name use AppendToTextFile
- Changed all CFString text encoding to use the default encoding.

Previous features include:

- Access to a toolbar button
- Scroll wheel support
- live window resizing
- Access to the application Dock tile menu
- Standard Alert Sheet support
- Ask Save Changes & Discard Save Changes sheet support
- Put file dialog sheet support
- Quit Event notification
- Complete proxy icon support with icon dragging and window's path menu
- The ability to get any folder by type & domain

The plug-in is $10 shareware and can be downloaded at:
