Description
Presentation Manager (PM) provides PC users running IBM's OS/2 2.0 operating system, with a highly graphical environment. This is a guide to developing applications in this OS/2 2.0 PM environment. Using a teaching example that builds steadily throughout the book, it aims to provide quick access to the most important PM programming skills, including multitasking, 32-bit programming for OS/2 2.0, number-crunching, fonts, graphics and animation. For practical reference, a complete program that developers may use as a basis for writing applications is included in the text. A disk is included with the book. The guide is ideal for prorogrammers who are moving to multi-tasking environments. It presumes a working knowledge of C programming and experience in programming in DOS. This book should be of interest to programmers.
