10. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

If there's anything I learned in University, it's that I should always acknowlege my sources (I once lost a load of marks 'cuz I didn't say Acknowledgements: none).
  • The code for Shaded Buttons (at least when I started it) was largely based on code found in OS/2 Presentation Manager Programming (Charles Petzold). A lot of other code is also taken from there (part of Test1 and Test2 for example).
  • I used the documentation from Prominare's site to figure out how the normal buttons behave, and how to get PMCX to work.
  • I used some information from one of IBM's web sites, to figure out how normal buttons behave, what certain messages mean, and what functions to use.
  • Thanks to Mark Benge and Matt Smith, for their GUI Corner column that used to appear in OS/2 Magazine, before it shut down. Their series on custom controls was especially usefull.
  • Thanks to IBM for creating such a great operating system.
