The old RKM's described V1.1 of the system software. These new V1.3 RKMs will be a large improvement. | In the computer world, few released things are not immediately | obsolete. At this time the new manual is %100 up-to-date. Every scrap of current information was included in the manual. As V1.4 Kickstart and Workbench are developed, they will initially be described in the form of "change notes". Purchasers of the V1.3 manual set will not be loosing their investment. The V1.3 manuals are significantly better organized than any previous edition. Many new charts and lists have been included to appeal to the advanced developer. The introductions have been reviewed for clarity by novice programmers. And, unlike previous editions, every code example was re-tested from the final typeset source. -- |\_/| .
