personably, i'd much rather have a real book al la "mastering turbo pascal 6.0" in my hands but that us very unlikely to be seen ;)
Books have (kind of) a TOC and an index (skeleton), covering all topics, and all topics are covered in the text part (meat). There exist one or more authors who built the TOC, then started to write down whatever they found worth to mention with every single topic. The book is published only after the whole work is done (skeleton+meat+skin).
With regards to the Lazarus IDE and LCL we don't have a finished skeleton, little meat, and I dunno about the skin :-(
BTW, people who write "mastering..." books make their *living* from writing such books, and do not much more than collecting, reorganizing and annotating *existing* documentation. Lack of collected and organized existing documentation is not a good base for writing such books :-(
What's the state of the German Lazarus book? DoDi -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
