Hello AtariLand,

I am about to embark on the writing of a fairly major piece of programming on
a 1040 ST with Mark Williams C (I think). I am writing a windowing application
which will also have to gather data from the ST serial port.

Can anyone recommend
	a) a good introductory text on programming, particularly the serial
  	   interface and the windowing features,

	b) a good reference work for the same features

Thanx in advance,

	Chris Parkin Lilley
