Correction to GreetMe Application Code Listing
Page 3
The call to the TextFont function in Listing 1-1 should occur before
StringWidth is called. In addition, Listing 1-1 should include all the
standard initializations, even for managers not explicitly called by the code
listing. For example, Listing 1-1 should call TEInit.

UseResFile Incorrectly Named
Page 54
The documentation refers to the SetResFile routine. The routine should
be UseResFile.
Correction to List of Reserved Resource Types
Page 55
The documentation states that "Apple reserves for its own use all resource
types that include any lowercase letters." This is incorrect. Apple reserves
resource types consisting entirely of lowercase letters and special symbols, as
well as any other system-defined resource types that already exist. In general,
developer-defined resource types should contain at least one uppercase letter.

Correction to QuickDraw Coordinate Plane
Page 86
The documentation states that the QuickDraw coordinate plane extends from
-32767 to 32,767 along the x and y axes. The correct range is
-32,768 to 32,767.
