When the Mac was born I remember being surprised to see that some of the programmers documentation had be written many years earlier (I think I saw some that was 5 years old). It really does take a long time to get all the necessary information and tools in place. It took a long time of OS X too. I think they are right to ship the hardware first and let the rest catch up eventually. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
