The Macintosh system has matured over the past 12 years into the sophisticated and diverse Mac OS that developers work with today. Apple is meticulous in its documentation of the Mac OS, and the result is the Inside Macintosh series. Apple and A-W make this documentation available to you in a variety of formats: * Individual bound books (paper! how novel!) * Electronic full text in DocViewer format: Inside Mac CD-ROM * Electronic quick reference: Macintosh Programmer's Toolbox Assistant The complete list of 27 titles is pretty daunting, but take heart. You can think of Inside Mac topics in two groups: those that are common to all Macs, and those that are specific to your application. The core technology topics: * The Macintosh Toolbox * Interapplication Communication * Text * Imaging with QuickDraw * Memory, Processes, Files, Operating System Utilities, Devices Specialized technology topics: * QuickTime * PowerPC System Software, PowerPC Numerics * Sound * Networking * AOCE * QuickDraw GX 0201407280B04062001
