Version	Notes
Mar. 16, 1999	Initial public release. The following changes were made from the prior (seed draft) version:
	Changed "Window Manager 2.0" to "Mac OS 8.5 Window Manager" throughout to reflect final versioning.
	Added "Using the Mac OS 8.5 Window Manager" and "About the Mac OS 8.5 Window Manager" chapters to contain programming discussions, code listings, artwork, and conceptual material.
	Gestalt Constants . Added description of the `gestaltHasFloatingWindows` bit.
	`CreateNewWindow` . Changed function name to `CreateNewWindow` from `CreateWindow` to reflect final naming.
	`AreFloatingWindowsVisible` , `HideFloatingWindows` , and `ShowFloatingWindows` . Noted requirement for each of these functions that the `InitFloatingWindows` function be called prior to their use and that these functions are therefore not supported under Mac OS 8.5 (or prior system versions).
	`InitFloatingWindows` . Added description of this function.
	`MoveWindowStructure` , `RepositionWindow` , and `SetWindowBounds` . Noted that these functions display the window after changing its size and/or position.
	`ResizeWindow` . Noted that this function is not supported under Mac OS 8.5 (or prior Mac OS versions). Corrected description of `sizeConstraints` parameter to note that 32,767 is the largest maximum value that can be passed and that `NULL` may be passed, as well.
	`RemoveWindowProxy` , `SetWindowProxyAlias` , `SetWindowProxyCreatorAndType` , `SetWindowProxyFSSpec` , and `SetWindowProxyIcon` . Noted requirement under Mac OS 8.5 to set graphics port before drawing, after calls to these functions.
	`EndWindowProxyDrag` . Changed parameter name to `theDrag` from `drag` to reflect final naming.
	`HiliteWindowFrameForDrag` . Added more information on the functions `ShowDragHilite` and `HideDragHilite` to discussion.
	`SetWindowModified` . Expanded discussion to clarify that the state of the content of the window is what the modification state of the window should reflect.
	`IsWindowPathSelectClick` . Corrected to discussion to note that `IsWindowPathSelectClick` should be called when `FindWindow` returns either `inDrag` or `inProxyIcon` .
	`WindowPathSelect` . Noted that your program must ensure that the Finder window resulting from this call is brought to the front.
	`GetWindowProperty` , `RemoveWindowProperty` , and `SetWindowProperty` . Changed parameter names to reflect final naming. Also noted that `NULL` may be passed in the `actualSize` parameter of `GetWindowProperty` .
	`MeasureWindowTitleRec` . Changed the name of the first reserved field to "`isUnicodeTitle` " to reflect final naming.
	Window Class Constants . Noted that one must call the function `InitFloatingWindows` for windows assigned the `kFloatingWindowClass` constant.
	Window Definition State-Changed Constant . Removed unimplemented constant values.
	Result Codes . Added descriptions of the `errWindowsAlreadyInitialized` and `errFloatingWindowsNotInitialized` result codes.
