Kent,

I had same probelm before until some netters point out there is a excellent
tutorial(IB_tutorial.ps.Z) in sonata.cc.purdue.edu/pub/next/submissions.
Check it out, satisfcation guarantee ;-) kuods to the author-Michael K. Mahoney

So where is our in-depth NeXT programming book ? 

Why it is so hard to wait for a programming book on NeXT while there
are so many GOOD programming books on MS-Windos, Macintosh and Motif ?

Does it means the NeXT base users are still too few to write a programming
book for them ?

Tell me, you NeXT gurus.
