5.0 out of 5 stars the indispensable book for Lingo-Programmers, January 15, 1999
This review is from: The Lingo Programmer's Reference (Paperback)
(excuse my english, I'm Swiss) Before purchasing this book or even knowing about it, I had some heavy problems in finding the right way (or a shorter one) to solve several problems in programming Multimedia-applications. I ordered this book and everything changed! It's descriptions are so easy (even when you aren't originally english-speaking!), because you just can read the text and know what the command, keyword, property a.s.o. is all about. You have even more than one solution showed in examples. There is only one bad thing: if you use this book very often, the cover of the book looks old soon; it could be a little stronger. My suggestion: if you suffer a headache from studying and controlling your non-functioning scripts, you better get this book as soon as possible and keep it handy! You will gain a hell of a time!

Have fun

Best regards

Patric Simon

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful for beginners too!, September 11, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: The Lingo Programmer's Reference (Paperback)
Being a Director user for only a few months, I found that this book helped me navigate the Lingo learning curve much better than either of the manuals that came with the program. If you're just starting out with Director, you NEED this book. Its easy to follow explanation of new Director 6 features also make it a must have for veteran Directors
