IB really screams out for a book. It is the single greatest program on the NeXT, but it does still take quite a bit of hacking about to figure out what's going on. With a decent tutorial or book the number of apps for the NeXT could greatly increase. Glad to hear one's in progress. Probably come out just as I figure out what's going on :-( Don McGregor | "When transporting a monkey, don't let him take mcgredo@prism.cs.orst.edu| the wheel no matter how much he screeches."
