[comp.std.misc] Looking for User Interface Standards

craig@unicus.UUCP (Craig D. Hubley) (06/22/88)

I am researching user interface standards, and need copies of the following:

Apple's Human Interface Guidelines

Sun's Open Look Specifications (as complete as they are)

IBM SAA "Writing Applications" guides.

I also understand that Silicon Graphics and other companies are working
on User Interface Guidelines and toolkits, and would like to have at least
a complete list of published material relevant to these.

I know that Apple's guidelines exist in Inside Mac, but that there are regular
updates.  Are these all available together from somewhere in Apple ?

Likewise, I know that Open Look exists only in prototype, but am hoping to
find a specifications or design document, since the prototype is supposedly
stable.

Thanks for any help or leads you can provide,

Have you thought about asking an Apple dealer?
