README
This is a translation of Aaron Hillegass' PagePacker example from Objective-C to Nu.

It is released under the BSD license, the same license as the original PagePacker.

You'll notice that this project contains many fewer files than the original.
This is partly because Nu code is more concise.  But it also reflects my view
that dividing code across multiple files makes it less readable, much like
organizing a novel with each character's dialogue in a separate chapter.

All but four methods were converted to Nu. Of these four, two or three may
be representable in Nu with future improvements.

I've never used AppleScript (and don't plan to), so the scripting support in
scripting.nu is untested. I've attempted to test everything else, but there
may still be problems that I haven't found.

Please consider this a work in progress and an attempted proof of concept.
Its goal is to demonstrate that Nu can be used to develop significant Cocoa
applications.
