Welcome and what we are currently working on
Hi
Currently Jason has completed a new chapter about menus under intuition, gadtools and ReAction.
I'm over half way through a new chapter about making your own gadget, and when I'm done we will publish that.
If you guys have questions about the book so far, or ideas for future chapters or subsections, please feel free to say so.
Btw: Thomas Richter is working on a similar project documenting: dos.library
The RKRM changes and additions on this website have been updated with 2 new chapters. Enjoy !
If you have requests for which chapters we should write next, then please reply here with a suggestion. Myself I feel motivate to write about clicktab.gadget.
Why is Thor work on DOS not part of the new RKRM?
I
Basically we started our work independently of each other. And we haven't really discussed putting them together. But looking at the size of his work, I think it deserves to be in a book of its own. If he is interested we are more than willing, but I don't think either of us are in a rush
Since the latest RKRM only cover 2.0, your work cover 3.x. When do you think your « book » will be completed? I guess that you can use the documentation provided in the Devcon. PDF for 3.0/3.1.
I think it will take many years to complete - we are not working on it full time - too busy with other projects. Jason and I do not have the rights to amigamails or devcon notes so I would not venture into copying those.
Yes, I (Jason) add to it whenever I can and it is always growing and improving, but it is a lower priority as mentioned by Camilla.
Even though we can't copy AmigaMail articles, I certainly do refer to them and incorporate the important principles laid out in them when putting together each part of the RKRM update so rest assured that those principles are being included where valid.

Excellent!
