I created my own Makefile and link with the OpenGL, Cocoa, Carbon and Foundation frameworks. ( I use them all. ) However when I start up the application it runs as a 'Terminal" application. ( The 'Terminal" menu shows up in the top menubar. ) When I run the executable created with XCode my menu shows up in the menu bar as expected. All the same source code between XCode and the Makefile. So do I need to change somthing in the build?
Probably the easiest way to figure it out is to inspect the one PB/Xcode makes, either using the terminal, or “show package contents” in the ctrl-click menu for the application in Finder.
There is detailed documentation on Apple’s site if you need it.

I’m guessing that you’re saying you don’t want the terminal there when running your glut apps.
My take is, if you stick with the makefile, your code will be more easily portable to other OS’s. If you create a glut project in Xcode, you get the “feature” of not having Terminal running your glut app for you.
I think OneSadCookie is suggesting that you should be able to modify your makefile to do what the Xcode project is doing. Though, I wouldn’t have a clue about how to do that.
Personally, I think it’s pretty nice to have the terminal there – just so I can occasionally spit out messages to std out during execution to see what I’m doing.
