Part II Command Reference Part II Command Reference Part II is a conunand dictionary that describes each of the tools, scripts, and built-in conunands of the Macintosh Programmer's Workshop 3.0. When you have become sufficiently familiar with the material in Part I, you can move Part II to a smaller separate binder for convenient desktop reference. (You may also want to include frequently used appendixes or tables in the separate binder.) Please be sure to read the next section, "Conunand Prototype," which explains the format for all conunand deSCriptions and defines the basic behavior of all conunands .• Contents Conunand Prototype 6 AddMenu-add menu item 9 Adjust-adjust lines 13 Alert---display an alert box 14 Alias---define or write conunand aliases 15 Align-align text to left margin 17 Asm-MC68xxx Macro Assembler 18 Backup-folder file backup 25 Beep-generate tones 34 Begin ...

MacApp 2.0b5 UTEView Release Notes Russ Wetmore Overview This document documents changes and additions to the UTEView unit of MacApp. There are several reasons why these changes were desirable: • • • • To support the new MacApp 2.0 display architecture To add support for the new, "styled" TextEdit To simplify the unit and add consistency To improve its (already substantial) memory management facilities There are a couple of limitations which prevent TTEView from fully conforming to the new MacApp 2.0 display architecture. They are: • The text in a TextEdit record (TERec. hText) is limited to 32K characters • The height of the entire record must be less than 32K pixels tall. For these reasons, TIEView objects cannot take advantage of MacApp's 32-bit view coordinates The new TextEdit stresses memory management with more relocatable data structures, and many more temporary objects. TIEView tries its best to assure that any TIECommand is undoable. With version 1.0/1.1, however even with the precautions taken it is still possible to run into out-of-memory conditions that prevent undoing commands. The addition of extra data structures/objects just intensifies the need for new algorithms to assure that any command will be undoable. Note: In the descriptions that follow, new or changed methods, fields, and parameters are underlined.

MacApp 2.0b5 UDialog Release Notes Russ Wetmore Overview This document describes the classes that make up MacApp's "dialog" implementation. These classes primarily consist of a set of view classes that implement the kinds of views one often sees in Macintosh dialogs. (These views can be used in any MacApp window, regardless of whether you consider it a dialog.) The new classes can be created from resource templates. This is the hierarchy of the classes involved.

MacApp 2.0 ViewEdit User's Guide ViewEdit User's Guide preliminary draft 1 -WARNING - This is the first alpha release of ViewEdit. It is untested and not yet beta quality. It should be used with extreme caution: it may crash your system or even erase fIles from your hard disk. Save your work often and don't use ViewEdit when a system crash would cause you to lose data. Preface Welcome to the ViewEdit User's Guide, and to the power of ViewEdit. ViewEdit is a MacApp utility program that allows you to create view hierarchies in a what-you-see-is-what-you-get editing environment, rather than in a compiled resource file. ViewEdit gives you as much view-editing power as Rez but provides Commando-like dialogs for entering values into each 'view' resource field. This relieves you of having to remember which fields and values are associated with which 'view' types. ViewEdit also allows you to draw, resize, and move your views using the standard Macintosh interface. It even creates and rearranges your view hierarchies as you go! Before you read this document, you should understand these concepts: • View hierarchies. These are introduced in the "Architecture" section of Chapter 4 of the MacApp 2.x Manual (Interim Version). - View classes. These are described in the MacApp® 2.0B5 Display Architecture Release Notes. • View resources. These are explained in the "Creating View Templates" recipe in Chapter 7, "The CookBook", in the MacApp 2.x Manual (Interim Version). This guide is divided into two parts: a step-by-step tutorial and a command reference. ViewEdit is simple enough to use that you may find you won't need to refer to this manual frequently. However, you should read through this manual at least once, for there are many shortcuts and features hidden in ViewEdit, as well as a few eccentricities. 1 © 1988 Apple Computer August 31, 1988 MacApp 2.0 ViewEdil User's Guide A first look at ViewEdit This section shows you how to use ViewEdit to edit the view resources in the DemoDialogs sample application. Before you begin this tutorial, you should build the DemoDialogs sample. If you are new to MacApp and the MPW environment, Chapter 6, of the MacApp 2.x Manual (Interim Version), "How to Install and Use MacApp", will show you how to build the sample applications. . After building DemoDialogs, open the ViewEd it application by double-clicking on its icon. The resource file window The fIrst thing that you will see after starting ViewEdit is the empty "Untitled-I" window. Close this window and choose the Open command from the File menu. Then select the DemoDialogs application from the Standard File dialog. The window that appears is reminiscent of the resource file window in ResEdit. There is an icon for each type of resource in DemoDialogs. The icon for 'view' resources is always in the upper-left hand comer (and if you have a color screen, you will see it is also the only colored icon). Here is the resource file window from DemoDialogs: DemoDialo …
