    I am learning C right now with THINK C 4.0 and have run into some problems.
 After completing some applications from the Macintosh Programming Primer (book
), I decided to try and make my own simple program. I just wanted it to display
 menus, the apple and file, I didn't want it to do anything, just display menus
. So I did the defines, and had it initalize the ToolBox/MenuBar/Menus, but I c
ouldn't make any progress without having to add "HandleAppleChoice" and "Handle
FileChoice" and telling what should happend when I go to the file or apple menu
. And I also had to add all this HandleEvents junk. Why do I have to have event
s when all I went is menus? I am confused and frustrated. It will compile fine
but then give me a system error when it runs. if someone can help me, I could s
end them the source code that I typed up. Thank You very much.
