Tim,

I have been an O'Reilly user for several years. Your Unix in a Nutshell helped start me in my Unix career. I have seen your book on Frontier in the bookstore and always hoped to see more publications for the Macintosh platform; however, when I look in the back of the Frontier book (or any other O'Reilly publication) I do not even see the Frontier book mentioned, much less a - dare I say it - Mac in a Nutshell.

When can I and millions of other Mac users buy O'Reilly books which cover the Mac?

Thanks,
Joel

Joel,

We actually have a MacOS 8 in a Nutshell book in the works. We also are working on a RealBASIC book. And of course books like

and other graphics-oriented books cover the Mac platform as well as the PC. We are looking at other Macintosh titles as well.
