[I'll be replying via e-mail to the poster, but thought this would be of interest to others as well] There is a fairly good introduction to OOP, Obj C, and NeXT's mods to gbd available via anon ftp from nova.cc.purdue.edu in the file pub/next/docs/Objc.frame.Z (the OldObjc.{ps,wn} are an older version of this). The tutorial is about 50-60 pages in a FrameMaker document. It *appears* that the tutorial is a set of course notes made for an OOP programming class at purdue (tho I don't remember exactly, I haven't read it for a month or so). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fighting for peace is like fucking for viginity! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Biron pbiron@ucsd.edu (net mail) garp!pbiron@keynes.ucsd.edu (NeXT mail) Central University Library, Mail Code C-075-R (619) 534-5758 Social Sciences DataBase Project University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, Ca. 92093 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STOP THE WAR IN THE GULF --- NOW !!!!!!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Biron pbiron@ucsd.edu (619) 534-5758
