? Newton Programmer's Guide - For Newton 2.0
This is the original guide Apple published for Newton programmers.
This is "the" source of information on what is possible with the
Newton OS and how it is done. Heaps of code snippets and a thorough
description of everything the 2.x OS allows programmers to do. This
volume is a "must have" for anyone who wants to write Newton programs
without having to waste time with chasing information.
? Newton Programmer's Guide - OS 2.1 Addenum
? Newton Programmer's Reference - For Newton 2.0
This is also a "must have" if you want to write Newton programs. It is
an exhaustive reference for programming Newtons that run OS 2.0 or
later.
? The NewtonScript Programming Language
The NewtonScript Programming Language is also good to have nearby
whenever you write Newton programs. This book is a detailed reference
of NewtonScript, the elegant programming language Newton programs are
written in.
? The Newton User Interface Guidelines
A book that every programmer should learn by heart. Not only every
Newton programmer, but every programmer. In this volume Apple
describes on a couple of hundreds of pages how good, fast and
intuitive user interfaces are designed. They certainly know what they
are talking about, Apple has always been famous for ease-of-use. You
won't need this volume if you just want to write a program. If,
however, you want to write a program with a user interface that your
customers like, this is the book you should have nearby.

## Books on Newton Development:
? Programming for the Newton - Software Development with NewtonScript
This volume describes the NewtonScript development environment and
teaches the reader how to write Newton software on the Macintosh. Key
features include: hands-on Newton development training with a sample
code created specifically for the Newton with NewtonScript; an
introduction to the basics of the object-oriented paradigm, to
facilitate use of NewtonScript; and the inclusion of a high-density
floppy disk containing source codes for all the programming examples
in the book. Note that the systems requirement for the software
includes, Macintosh with 68020 processor or higher, 8Mb RAM, System
7.0 or later.
