- Prologue
-
- Ever wanted to write high quality multitasking programs? Can't quite get
- the hang of manipulating words, bytes, menu structures and message systems?
- Have you looked in despair at the amount of programming needed to get a
- single window on the desktop?
-
- Forget all your worries and write great applications with great ease;
- Doctor Wimp is here!
-
- DrWimp - solves all your multitasking worries!
-
- Banish that dodgy polling code to your disc box! Wipe that broken window
- redraw program from your hard drive! Drop that tired out menu creator into
- your null: device!!
-
- The DrWimp system consists of:
-
- •The DrWimp library.
- •A template !RunImage file.
- •This manual in Impression format and text format.
- •Example Template files for standard windows.
- •Support files for the tutorials.
- •!Func'n'Proc quick browser.
- •!MakeApp2, !Crunch and !TemplEd PD utilities.
