Overview

sophisticated and diverse Mac OS that developers work with today. Apple is meticulous in its documentation of the Mac OS, and the result is the Inside Macintosh series.

Apple and A-W make this documentation available to you in a variety of formats:

Individual bound books (paper! how novel!)
Electronic full text in DocViewer format: Inside Mac CD-ROM
Electronic quick reference: Macintosh Programmer's Toolbox Assistant

The complete list of 27 titles is pretty daunting, but take heart. You can think of Inside Mac topics in two groups: those that are common to all Macs, and those that are specific to your application.

The core technology topics:

The Macintosh Toolbox
Interapplication Communication
Text
Imaging with QuickDraw
Memory, Processes, Files, Operating System Utilities, Devices

Specialized technology topics:

QuickTime
PowerPC System Software, PowerPC Numerics
Sound
Networking
AOCE
QuickDraw GX

QuickTime enables programmers to create multimedia applications with sound, video, and animation. This book provides information on QuickTime fundamentals and shows how to manipulate video data, use the Movie Toolbox to load, play, create, and edit video data, and use image compression to enhance the performance of QuickTime movies.
