Well, time for me to open my big mouth... I work in Apple II Developer Technical Support at Apple Computer. For several months now, I have been furiously answering developers questions, writing technotes, and preparing programs and source code for a Source Code Demo Disk. While we currently have lots of ideas of what do write and program about, the topics ususally lie along the lines of "fun stuff", i.e., what we are per- sonally interested in. What I want to know is: What are you interested in? What would you like to know about? What technotes and/or demo programs would you like to see. What else can we provide for the Apple II programming community? For example, here is what we have in the works right now: Technotes: How to write a custom menu/control/ or window. Filetype technotes #0-255 (what are assigned/defined) Clarifications/corrections of the ToolBox manual. Journalling driver. Demo Source: Source for custom windows/menu/controls Jiffy Windows: how to perform fast window manipulation (caching, etc.) Menu/Dialog/ListMgr/Printing/LineEdit Primers Animation and sound demos Shell applications in Assembler and C As I've said, we have ideas for many more, but I want to make sure that we give you what YOU want. For instance, you will note a heavy bent towward Apple IIgs information. Reply to me personally, I'll summarize to the net, and we can haggle over the subjects then if you want to.
