C Reference Card 2.5
June 1996

A must for every programmer, 'C Reference Card' is like having your favorite C/C++ reference book on-line.  It has dozens of complete code snippets demonstrating basic programming techniques, a complete listing of the ANSI C function library, as well as a complete sample Macintosh application.  Use the search engine to quickly locate the information you need.  The new 'Gray Background' feature allows you to easily distinguish the 'C Reference Card' window from the other windows on your desktop.

Like to add some of your own information on a topic?  No problem, you can easily customize 'C Reference Card' to suit your taste using any resource editor (no redistribution of modified versions though, please).

Best of all, it's free!

Although you can feel free to use this application as you wish, there is no expressed or implied warranty as to the performance of the software.

INSTRUCTIONS

C Reference Card is a text viewer only.  You can copy and paste text to the clipboard, but you cannot edit any information displayed (except using a resource editor to edit the TEXT resources of the application).

Using C Reference Card is fairly straightforward.  Just select a topic from the Section menu, and browse the information using the scrollbars.  You can use the built-in search engine (by invoking the Find option under the Edit menu, or by using the Command-F key combination) to quickly locate specific information such as an ANSI function command or a C keyword.
