- DESC: TN.055.Drawing Icons - Using resources of type ICON allows drawing
- KEY: TN.055.Drawing Icons KBytes: 11264
- DESC: of icons in srcOr mode. Using resources of type ICN# allows for
- DESC: more variety when drawing icons.

- DESC: TN.056.Break/CTS - This technical note documents the event record
- KEY: TN.056.Break/CTS KBytes: 4096
- DESC: information that gets passed when the serial driver posts an event
- DESC: for a break/CTS status change.

- 43 TN.058.IU Bug 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.058.IU Bug - This note formerly described a bug in System 2.0,
- KEY: TN.058.IU Bug KBytes: 3072
- DESC: which is now recommended only for use with 64K ROM machines.
- DESC: Information specific to 64K ROM machines has been deleted from
- DESC: Macintosh Technical Notes for reasons of clarity.
- 37 TN.064.IZANotify 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.064.IZANotify - Previous versions of this technical note
- KEY: TN.064.IZANotify KBytes: 3072
- DESC: recommended use of a low memory hook called IAZNotify. We no longer
- DESC: recommend use of IAZNotify, since the IAZNotify hook is never
- DESC: called under MultiFinder.
- 33 TN.068.Search.V 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.068 This Technical Note discusses the PBCatSearch function and
- KEY: TN.068.Search.V KBytes: 14336
- DESC: tells why it should be used. It also provides simple algorithms for
- DESC: searching both MFS and HFS volumes and discusses the problems with
- DESC: indexed search routines.
- 32 TN.069.PBGetCatInfo 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.069.PBGetCatInfo - This technical note describes how to set
- KEY: TN.069.PBGetCatInfo KBytes: 10240
- DESC: ioFDirIndex for PBGetCatInfo. The File Manager chapter of Inside
- DESC: Macintosh volume IV is not very specific in describing how to use
- DESC: ioFDirIndex when calling PBGetCatInfo. It correctly says that
- DESC: ioFDirIndex should be positive if you are making indexed calls to
- DESC: PBGetCatInfo (analogous to making indexed calls to PBGetVInfo as
- DESC: described in Technical Note #24).
- 22 TN.079._ZoomWindow 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.079._ZoomWindow - This Technical Note contains some hints about
- KEY: TN.079._ZoomWindow KBytes: 11264
- DESC: using _ZoomWindow. Changes since March 1988: Added a discussion of
- DESC: and sample code to demonstrate recommended window zooming technique
- DESC: in multi-screen environments. Basics _ZoomWindow allows a window to
- DESC: be toggled between two states (where “state” means size and
- DESC: location): a default state and a user-selectable state. The
- DESC: default state stays the same unless the application changes it,
- DESC: while the user-selectable state is altered when the user changes the
- DESC: size or location of a zoomable window. The code to handle zoomable
- DESC: windows in a main event loop would look something like the examples
- 21 TN.080.SF Tips 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.080.SF Tips - SFSaveDisk and CurDirStore. Low-memory location
- KEY: TN.080.SF Tips KBytes: 5120
- DESC: $214 (SFSaveDisk—a word) contains –1* the vRefNum of the volume
- DESC: that SF is displaying (MFS and HFS). It never contains –1* a
- DESC: WDRefNum. Low-memory location $398 (CurDirStore—a long word)
- DESC: contains the dirID of the directory that SF is displaying (HFS
- DESC: only). This information can be particularly useful at hook time,
- DESC: when the vRefNum field of the reply record has not yet been filled
- DESC: in.

- DESC: TN.081.Caching - This technical note describes disk and File System
- KEY: TN.081.Caching KBytes: 8192
- DESC: caching on the Macintosh, with particular emphasis on the high-level
- DESC: File System cache. Of the three caches used for file I/O, this is
- DESC: the one which could have the most impact on your program. Note:
- DESC: This big File System cache is not available on 64K ROM machines.

- 19 TN.082.TextEdit 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.082.TextEdit - This technical note will point out some bugs (and
- KEY: TN.082.TextEdit KBytes: 5120
- DESC: possible workarounds), and other items of interest for the TextEdit
- DESC: programmer.

- 13 TN.088.Signals 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.088.Signals - Signals are a form of intra-program interrupt which
- KEY: TN.088.Signals KBytes: 14336
- DESC: can greatly aid clean, inexpensive error trapping in stack frame
- DESC: intensive languages. A program may invoke the Signal procedure and
- DESC: immediately return to the last invocation of CatchSignal, including
- DESC: the complete stack frame state at that point.

- DESC: TN.093.MPW {$LOAD} - This technical note discusses the Pascal
- KEY: TN.093.MPW {$LOAD} KBytes: 7168
- DESC: {$LOAD} directive as well as how to unload the _DataInit and
- DESC: %_MethTables segments.{$LOAD} MPW Pascal has a {$LOAD} directive
- DESC: that can dramatically speed up compiles.
- 7 TN.094.Tags 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.094.Tags - Apple has decided to eliminate support for file-system
- KEY: TN.094.Tags KBytes: 4096
- DESC: tags on its future products; this technical note explains this
- DESC: decision. Some of Apple’s disk products (and some third-party
- DESC: products) have the ability to store 532 bytes per sector, instead
- DESC: of the normal 512. Twelve of the extra bytes are used to store
- DESC: redundant file system information, known as “tags”, to be used by a
- DESC: scavenging utility to reconstruct damaged disks.
- 6 TN.095.Print Dialogs 0 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.095.Print Dialogs - This technical note discusses how to add your
- KEY: TN.095.Print Dialogs KBytes: 27648
- DESC: own items to the Printing Manager’s dialogs. When the Printing
- DESC: Manager was initially designed, great care was taken to make the
- DESC: interface to the printer drivers as generic as possible in order to
- DESC: allow applications to print without being device-specific.

- 5 TN.096.SCSI Bugs 1 B AMUG BBS in a Box 02-15-1991
- DESC: TN.096.SCSI Bugs - There are a number of problems in the SCSI
- KEY: TN.096.SCSI Bugs KBytes: 14336
- DESC: Manager; this note lists the ones we know about, along with an
- DESC: explanation of what we’re doing about them. Changes made for the
- DESC: 2/88 release are made to more accurately reflect the state of the
- DESC: SCSI Manager. System 4.1 and 4.2 are very similar; one bug was
- DESC: fixed in System 4.2.
