often. Nice, simple examples, sorces and ready compiled. Unfortunately the
encyclopedia is a little bit old (1992). For example they use old fashioned
C, the encyclopedia does not contain all chapters (Shareware) and of course
it does not cover OS3.1 ... But I think I will print it at home. Do you know
whether they still handle shareware-payments?

a resizeable and font-sentive GUI (not only "Use MUI, ClassAct, Storm
Wizzard...", but really a workshop from the first idea up to the program).
How to add a HelpSystem (ready to use examples), How to localize a
application (again a ready to reuse tutorial)... When and why to create new
tasks and so on and so on.

can code on other platforms. They have all the examples, tutorials, howtos,
the nice and powerfull integrated development enviroments (often illegal
copied for free)... Having some examples somewhere hidden in the net is not
enough! If we want to see new programs on the amiga we must simplify coding
as much as possible. Its simply a pain if a coder stops his project before
beginning at all because there is no (or he dont know) GUI-editor for
example. This situation must be improved.
