Intro:
======

This is an OLD app that I "converted". It's NOT EASY the conversion from NEXTSTEP to OpenStep. At least not as easy as we were lead to believe. Even a VERY simple application such as this one does not automatically convert to OpenStep. I can only imagine the work that it takes to convert something like WriteUp or other fancy applications...

Very simple app. What's there to say? It calculates the California state tax. Nothing fancy, no bells or anything else.
