The Joy of Coding (Ep. 13): Printing. Again!

Had to deal with some network issues during this video – sorry if people were getting dropped frames during the live show! I have personally checked this recording, and almost all frames are there.

The only frames that are missing are the ones where I scramble around to connect to the wired network, which was boring anyhow.

In this episode, I worked on proxying the print dialog from the content process on OS X. It was a wild ride, and I learned quite a bit about Cocoa stuff. It was also a throwback to my very first episode, where I essentially did the same thing for Linux!

We’ll probably polish this off in the next episode, or in the episode after.
