Let me see if I understand it. GS/OS volumes I and II ARE available from APDA, although the eventual version that will be published will be repackaged. There is no reason not to get volumes I and II from them now. ToolBox volume III is also available form APDA, and it too is the right version to buy. All three (in some form) will be going to AW, but don't hold your breath. Other than the technotes (inlcuding file types etc.), which are available on the FTP sites, and the AW books that have already been published, this is the only official Apple GS documentation. (OK, also include what comes with the machine.) TMPLee@dockmaster.ncsc.mil

Don't forget the Hardware Reference (2nd Edition), Firmware Reference (and update at APDA), Progammer's Introduction, APW manuals, Numerics Manual, AppleShare programmer's guide, Inside AppleTalk, Human Interface Guidelines, etc. >TMPLee@dockmaster.ncsc.mil -- ============================================================================ Matt Deatherage, Apple Computer, Inc. | "The opinions represented here are Developer Technical Support, Apple II | not necessarily those of Apple Group.
