[] Does someone know if the book "Smalltalk-80: Creating a User Interface and Graphical Applications" has been published? It would appear so, since the back of "Smalltalk-80: The Language and its Implementation" lists it as being available from Addison-Wesley. However, I have been unable to find a copy, in a bookstore, or anywhere else. Thank you very much. Serge Granik serge@ucbvax.berkeley.edu ...!ucbvax!serge

The only information I've gotten from Addison-Wesley is that the book is scheduled to be published in 1986, but that no printing date has been set.

[ Couldn't find a copy of
_SmallTalk-80: Creating a User Interface and Graphical Applications_ ]
The book is hard to find because Addison Wesley *hasn't* published it yet.
I have a understanding with one of the local book stores to check with
AW every few orders to see if it has been published, and if so,
to re-order my copy.
Until then....
If you are interested in the MVC paradigm, there is a book...
Cox, Brad J.: Object Oriented Programming
Addison-Wesley, 1986
ISBN 0-201-10393-1
...Chapter 9 of the book, "Iconic User Interfaces", describes
SmallTalk-80's Model View Controller stuff.
Note: I haven't read this book myself, only heard references about
it on the net and from friends.
