I'm experimenting with my first xcmd's, written in  Lightspeed C, and to be 
called from hypertalk.  I'm using Danny Goodman's Developers Guide, 
though I've also looked at an article in May's Dr. Dobb's Journal by J.M.
Anderson.  I'm new to the Mac, and new to LSC, though I've been around
Unix, C and Dos for quite some time.

Here's my problem:  both of my sources show that an include file,  "XCmd.h" 
(Anderson) or something like "HyperXCmd.h" (Goodman) is required at 
compile-time.  Neither these files, or anything similar seem to be on
either of the two LSC distribution disks.  Can anyone help me here?

Also, the Anderson article mentions a book, 'XCMDs for HyperCard' by 
Gary Bond, which he says has 'well-worked examples in Lightspeed C.'
Does anyone know anything about this book?

Thanks.
