How's that for starters? There's a bunch more, but it's late :).
I have personally been working on Resorcerer (more than) full-time for about 5
years, and my company has been selling it direct to developers for about 3
years. Most of the Mac programs you see ads for are currently being built with
the aid of RR, judging from our customer list. Many of Apple's localizers use
RR, as do the localizers for many of the other big Mac developers. Significant
numbers of Apple's own engineers enjoy Resorcerer too, which is one reason why
you haven't seen a whole lot being done on ResEdit in the last year or two. My
job is to keep it that way! [Do you think Apple's going to be interested in
revising the significant portions of ResEdit that are still written in
assembler to the PowerPC? RR is 100% C code.]
We just sent out upgrade letters to all registered users for version 1.2 of
Resorcerer who bought it before April 1, 1993. If you bought it since April 1,
you didn't get a letter because you'll get the upgrade free (if we have your
registration card!). The package is in the final stages of production, so if
you've sent your upgrade check, please be patient. We're a little fish in a
big pond.
If you are interested, please order it direct from us. We dislike paying Apple
nearly 50% of our income when you buy it through APDA :(. Especially since
they use the money to subsidize our competition.
There is a demo in the Tools/Debuggers library here. When we release 1.2,
we'll be uploading a new demo. The demo's are pretty large, so we can send you
a disk in the mail also.
