Greetings, I'm desparate. I have spent Megabucks calling people all over to get nowhere. What I really need is as much information as possible on the Graph3D unit included with turbo and lightspeed pascal for the Macintosh. Borland said that Graph3D is licensed to them from Apple and that Borland has no documentation. Apple was clueless. BMUG cut me off. APDA was likewise ill-equiped. Can someone please tell me how to get info on what each of the routines in Graph3 do, and all how to use them? Thanks. Please reply to icsu8165@caesar.cs.montana.edu, as I'm posting this for him...

What I really need is as much information as possible on the |Graph3D unit included with turbo and lightspeed pascal for the Macintosh. I can't help you with those products. What I know about is a library called Graf3D included with MPW. Quoting from the 3.0 beta manual, appendix G (My 3.0 Real manual is at home), "Graf3D is a set of QuckDraw calls used to produce three-dimensional grpahics, by providing a fixed-point interface to QuckDraw's integer coordinates. This appendix describes these routines and their use for both MPW Pascal and MPW C." The appendix is 13 pages long and describes the structures / RECORDs, types, and function and procedure calls. I also probably have on my disk the MPW C ".h" file. My Pascal is TML and it also includes the interface file. While I would be glad to if Apple says it's OK, I doubt I can legally send you any of this stuff (though the interface files are available from the Apple FTP site or any of the other archives which carry the Apple material). You might be able to get what you need from APDA (that is without having to buy MPW). Hope this is of some use. /JBL = UUCP: levin@bbn.com (new) or {backbone}!bbn!levin (old) INTERNET: levin@bbn.com POTS: (617) 873-3463 "The night was"

Graf3D is documented in the back pages of the MPW C reference manual. I believe that I also saw it in the Pascal and assembler manuals, but I don't have any of them available now.
