a_dent@vaxa.uwa.oz (Andy Dent) writes about NEON and Schmucker's book.

Chuck Duff, the guy who did NEON is the 'inventor' of Actor, the
object-oriented language that is doing so well in the PC world. The
company's name is The Whitewater Group and they're in Illinois; I
don't have an exact address of phone number handy.

I agree that Schmucker's book is good, but somewhat out of date. The
MacApp that it describes is version 1 and Apple have had 2.0B5 out for
some time now. It is my fervent hope that when MacApp 2.0 final
appears, Schmucker will revise his book to include it as well as C++.
