I can offer the books "Programming for the Newton Using
Macintosh 2nd Edition" by McKeehan and Rhodes and "Newton's
Programmer's Guide" by Apple Computer Inc., both with CD's for the
cost of shipping. They're in excellent condition and came with my
just-purchased Newton, but I'm not likely to use them and would like
them to go to someone who can get some good out of them. Besides,
maybe this way I'll build up enough good deeds for *someone* to port
either the "Swedish Chef" or "Psycho Chicken" text filters to the
Newton or to OS X...
