[MD1] Gestalt Selectors List v3.6

[MD1] Gestalt Selectors List v3.6

Dear Mac-programmers,

I have released version 3.6 of the

Gestalt Selectors List (GSL)

This list was released for the first time on this day in the year 1992.
Hence, this release marks the FOURTH ANNIVERSARY of this list!
To celebrate this a survey it held for every GSL user to fill in and
return. The survey form is included with the GSL 3.6 release but it can
also be entered using a form on a WWW page:
http://www.bio.vu.nl/home/rgaros/gestalt/survey.html

The GSL lists all sorts of information about the Gestalt Manager, but
mainly about selectors and the meaning of the returned values.
The Gestalt Manager is part of the Apple Macintosh System Software to
enable programmers to determine the availability of certain software and
hardware.

You can obtain the latest version in several ways:
- by sending email to the mail archive server at:
gestalt-selectors-list-request@bio.vu.nl
