Starting Cocoa/Cocoa front-end to unix

[vonleigh]

Hello,

I'm learning to program in ObjectiveC and using Cocoa. My programming friends gave me the following advice "just pick a project and do it, you'll learn along the way". I'm already somewhat competent in java and php, but have no idea about mac programming.

Anyway, my project is to make a backup utility that is going to be a front-end to the unix side of things.

Unfortunately I haven't found any info on how to make a front-end, and how to tie in the cocoa with the unix side of things.

Anyone know where I can find some documentation to read up on the subject? Anyone care to recommend some objectiveC and/or Cocoa tutorials?


thanks,
Vonleigh
