Could someone point me towards documentation and availability of the Macintosh Graf3d package, apparently done by Apple? I'd like to use it from Lightspeed C, if possible. Rick Giles Bitnet: FRGILES@Acadia Internet: FRGILES%Acadia.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU UUCP: uunet!dalcs!aucs!ifocs9d

Contact THINK. They made documentation for the package, as I got a set to go with Lightspeed Pascal. The interface is the same. Just call and ask for it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Alexander M.

I'd like >to use it from Lightspeed C, if possible. I'm more than a little annoyed with MacTutor Magazine over this. More than one year ago I submitted an article on Graf3D, the LightSpeed C interface to it, and using them to draw the teapotohedron (See cover, CACM, Feb. 1988). (My program only draws the wire frame.) I recieved an acknowledgement that the article had arrived, and nothing since. In the past, when I have posted programming examples to the net, the text files always seem to get lost, and just the binaries get passed around. This always bothers me, since a programming tutorial is not a real commercial - quality application, and I care about my reputation. I came up with a nifty solution: I added a "decompile" command to the file menu. Choose it, and it simulates LightSpeed C's compile dialog running in reverse, and when it finishes, you've got complete source in text files, in the folder with the application. I'll write the editor of MacTutor about posting the program to the net.

We (THINK Technologies) have prepared a technote that explains how to use the
Graf3D package, and has interfaces and libraries for LightspeedC (they're
already supplied for Lightspeed Pascal).
If you send in $10, Tech Support will mail you a disk and the documentation.
