Writing programs for GS/OS?
Posted by: techknight on 2018-02-18 18:04:45
Is there any documentation or software out there for writing GUI apps for GS/OS? And did they ever have a GUI BASIC for GS/OS?

Just Curious.

There are docs, 3 volumes of Toolbox References and the GS/OS Reference from Apple are the primary source. No, they are not available as a PDF online.

GSoft BASIC supports the toolbox and GUI programming.

Also, there was a company called So What Software that wrote extensions to AppleSoft BASIC to use the extended capabilities of the IIgs.
