Developer Books from Apple:

• Newton Programmer's Guide - For Newton 2.0
This is the originial guide Apple published for Newton programmers. This is “the” source of information on what is possible with the Newton OS and how it is done. Heaps of code snippets and a thorough description of everything the 2.x OS allows programmers to do. This volume is a “must have” for anyone who wants to write Newton programs without having to waste time with chasing information.

CLIPS 6.05

CitizenGlez — Tue, 18 Nov 2014 23:36:46 +0000

Application file:

Clips_6.05.img_.hqx

CLIPS is a public domain software tool for building expert systems.
This image contains both 68k and PPC applications, documentation, examples and scripts.

It was extracted from the CD-ROM of an Expert Systems book some years ago, when I was at university. I don't remember the name of the book, as I borrowed it from a public library.

Compatibility:

It needs 2MB RAM and the complete set of windows is optimized to be shown at 800x600 resolution. Tested at Basilisk II running System 7.5.5.

iPhone OS 2.2.1 SDK for PPC

Kitchen2010 — Mon, 20 Oct 2014 14:02:51 +0000

The original iPhone, as it was presented in January 2007, was supposed to run only Web-Widget-Applications from third-party developers (Dashboard widgets as introduced with Mac OS X 10.4). Only Apple's own programs were supposed to have full access to the underlying operating system that was derived from the then current Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.

Compatibility:

Intel/G4/G5
Mac OS X 10.5.4 Leopard or higher
iPhone (2G) for remote debugging

ButtonTalk 1.0

WhosIt.There — Mon, 13 Oct 2014 05:55:22 +0000

Application file:

ButtonTalk_img.sit

From the read me file:

ButtonTalk is a tool for making interactive stories. The goal is to let writers create interactive text as simply as possible. You bring the ideas and the writing skills. My job is to stay out of your way, while giving you the tools you need. With ButtonTalk, you can build high quality finished programs based on interactive text. You don't need programmers, musicians or visual artists. It's all about words.

Compatibility:

The ButtonTalk application itself does not run under System 6 (at least it crashes in Mini vMac), but the standalone applications it creates do run under System 6 and in Mini vMac.

Egger was the precursor to NewtsBug and Hammer. It allowed developers to load a Newton ROM image onto a NuBus development board, such as the ARMistice, ARMageddon, or perhaps a BunWarmer via this card.

Without the NuBus card, this software is of very little use.

In January 1989, Apple Computer acquired the assets of Coral Software. Coral had two main Lisp products: Allegro Common Lisp and Pearl Lisp. Apple has re-released Allegro Common Lisp as the APDA product: Macintosh Allegro Common Lisp, at the reduced price of $495. Macintosh Allegro CL contains three modules previously sold separately by Coral Software: Allegro CL, the Foreign Function Interface and the Stand-Alone Application Generator.
