It is really dynamic.

The Atari Developer's Kit is the definitive (if huge and unorganized)
documentation. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THE ABACUS BOOKS.
You CAN buy the documentation seperately now, for about $100. Call
Cindy Claveran for details. (The operator at Atari's main number,
(408) 745-2000) can forward you.) I think that the $100 gets you the
documentation with NO support.
