Message-ID: <2849@sdcc6.ucsd.EDU> Date: Wed, 10-Sep-86 10:08:56 EDT Article-I.D.: sdcc6.2849 Posted: Wed Sep 10 10:08:56 1986 Date-Received: Thu, 11-Sep-86 08:22:07 EDT Organization: U.C. San Diego, Academic Computer Center Lines: 20 Keywords: book by Scott Knaster. How to Write Macintosh Software by Scott Knaster, an Apple Press book in the Hayden Macintosh Library, published by Hayden Book Company. This book was advertised in the third issue of the first volume of the Software Supplement. While I have no complaints about the content of the book, my copy and all the other copies delivered to the B Dalton BookSellers in my area all had some production defects: pages 19-49 were bound into the book upside down except in the copy in which I later exchanged which did not have those pages at all. If you intend to purchase this book I suggest you examine the copy before buying it. Otherwise I found the book to be very helpful. It gives a lot of hints in debugging and memory management. When I get a little more time I will post an article which reviews the book in more detail. -- David Whiteman, University of California, San Diego The America Cup, don't leave Perth without it.
