He wanted to know how to do it with *ResEdit*, which isn't >even mentioned in IM. (Don't know about Mac Revealed.) > Well, I know of two books which explain ResEdit really well. The first is the _Macintosh Programming Primer_, by Mark and Reed. It's geared to those who know C but don't know how to program the ToolBox using THINK C. It uses and explains (!) ResEdit all throughout the book. The other book will be out in March, according to Addison-Wesley Publishing. It is the "ResEdit Reference Manual". Supposedly will be the same page size as the Inside Macintosh volumes. Will be available with and without a disk, which I will assume (but may be wrong) will be ResEdit. An early version of this manual came out when ResEdit 2.0 was released, but it was allowed to go out of print, and revisions made to it for ResEdit 2.1. Stephen N.
