I wouldn't say it's ALL secret.  I find the Compute! set of technical
reference manuals for the ST comparable to the Mac "Toolbox" series.
They give the essentials for all GEM/BIOS/XBIOS calls, which is all
your supposed to be using anyway, at least if you want it to run
from ROM to ROM.

Or is there some information you need that these books don't contain?
