The Application Tutorial and Listings Book

This book contains all you need to know about writing multi-tasking
('Wimp') applications on RISC OS.

There are over 100 demonstration programs in BBC Basic to type in,
beginning with an exploration of the desktop, setting up windows,
populating them with icons, dealing with mouse clicks, advancing to menus
and user graphics (even emulating ZX Spectrum games!), how to implement a save-as dialogue box and application directories.

25 fully-functioning type-in applications are listed, ranging from fun to
the serious including a notepad, a plotter, Maestro bar copier, window
closer, label designer, Envelope editor and more.

The book is 310 pages of easy-open A5 wirebound paper and is written in
the practical and accessible, hands-on Drag 'N Drop style. Price is
GBP20.00 plus postage and handling of GBP2.50 worldwide.
