Introduction

SproutedUtilities is a hodgepodge of code I have come to use in Journler and other projects. 
Originally I wanted to create a collection of reusable code for a number of applications 
I was developing at the time. I now realize that there is no need for this code to be in a 
framework, although a repository of general code is a fine idea. Future work on this 
framework will involve decomposing it so that the project does not produce any usable binary 
but instead simply maintains the repository.

THIS IS OLD CODE. Much of it is deprecated or obsolete. In fact I do not believe the framework 
even compiles on Mac OS 10.7. I am nevertheless publishing the code as part of the Journler open 
source project because it is used extensively throughout Journler. As Journler 2.6 development 
proceeds changes to this framework will take place as well. I will push updates to github as they 
accumulate.

It is possible that software being used in this framework has not been correctly attributed or is being

not be included in this framework or which requires more robust attribution, please contact me.  I've 
collected code from a number of sources and I don't always note where it's from. For example, a lot of 
code is based on public source at cocoadev.com, a great repository for Cocoa and Obj-C developers.
