ToolServer Reference contains chapters covering the following topics:
SourceServer Reference 13 pp. Download SourceServer is a standalone version of Projector that provides users with source code control for a software project. SourceServer performs as a server application that has no user interface; all of its commands come to it via AppleEvents. It is up to client applications to determine which Projector commands they support, what user interface they provide, and to issue the corresponding commands to SourceServer. SourceServer Reference contains sections covering the following topics:
