by Jim Flanagan The computer, if I remember my history lesson correctly in this, our baroque age of computing, was born of a need to do arithmetic computations at high speeds — speeds which are affable by contemporary measure. Today, while computers are able to fit upon our desktop, they are still far too large, while they are orders of magnitude faster, they are still too slow, and while they store compar- atively incredible amounts of data, it is not enough….

By Dennis Austin It takes a lot of planning to put together a memory policy, and you never get it right the first time. No matter how much time you spend, it always seems you could be using memory more efficiently. The memory manager offers a wealth of tools for its control. The grow zone function is probably the most powerful, but it is only a tool, not a solution. This article explains ways you can use the grow zone…

Programming in C By Allen Holub Most Mac compilers claim to support the ANSI C Standard, in fact they support a subset of ANSI. Among the features most often omitted from that subset are the new preprocessor directives. The program described in this article corrects this problem to some extent. It is a C preprocessor that augments the standard preprocessor used by your compiler, expanding macros itself in order to support token pasting and the five predefined macros specified in…

Michael C. Storrie-Lombardi, M.D.MacTech QuarterlySummer 1989 – Page 90 Smalltalk, the original object oriented programming (OOP) environment, has finally arrived as a full-blown Macintosh implementation thanks to Digitalk, Inc., at the extraordinarily reasonable price of $199. Early signs point toward Smalltalk/V Mac introducing OOP and Macintosh personal programming to a large group of people currently unable to find a programming environment that combines power with a minimal learning curve. Getting Excited About Smalltalk/V While most of the personal computer world…

by Mick O’NeilMac Tech QuarterlySpring 1989 – Page 50 As the Macintosh penetration of the corporate and small business market has accelerated, compatibility and connectivity with resident MS DOS software and systems has becomes increasingly important. Thus, multi-system software developers like Microsoft, Aldus, and Word Perfect Corporation have insured that their latest spreadsheets, desktop publishing software, and word processors include the ability to recognize, open, and format data files created under both MS DOS and the Macintosh operating environment. Compatibility between…
