 I want to add to Roy Good's call for using only documented system
calls.  I think we need more adherence to the "rules".  But we
also need clearer rules and bug free functions (or at least docu-
mented bugs).  Of all the 'new' machines, the ST has the worst and
most difficult to find manuals.
 Compare the photocopied ST devpack docs to the AppleIIGS docs (the
 hardcover texts at Waldenbooks).  Perhaps if we could get better
 documentation, we would adhere more closely to the official calls.

 (by we, I mean programmers in general.  I'm stuck with Pascal
 so I'm not doing many system jumps;-)
