has: “Loaded by ColourDbox and Window modules in the Toolbox, see Appendix B of ISBN 1852501650” which would be very useful if we knew which manual “ISBN 1852501650” was! I’ve tried looking it up and no joy.
I do see the irony that I’ve almost certainly got copies of it ‘In Stock’!

185250 is the PRM, that specific number is likely to be volume 5 since it relates to the toolbox which isn’t in the original 4 volumes

Perhaps unsurprisingly, that is the “User Interface Toolbox” manual, dated Dec 1994.

Appendix B is titled “Support for RISC OS 3.10” and is half a page long. It outlines restrictions on using Toolbox modules in 3.10 and says that the ThreeTen module addresses these restrictions.

Are there any pdf copies of the “User Interface Toolbox” floating around?

Well, not pdf but since Aaron has done all that work (or had someone do it) it seems rather silly to ignore the information:
http://www.riscos.com/support/developers/manual_index/toolbox.html

Which is one of the clicks from http://www.riscos.com/support/developers/index.htm which has a few other items people might find useful.

I downloaded “User Interface Toolbox AMR” 534 page pdf about a year ago,
but I dont know where from now. It is an Acorn publication. Perhaps someone who knows the legalities could make it available, I think ROOL has other Acorn manuals available.
Edit: I just found an old posting on this and it was available at
http://foundation.riscos.com/Private/manuals/Toolbox/Asm.pdf
but the site is under repair atm. Should be OK to email a copy if required.

Thanks very much Gents. Appreciate the help.

I think you will find that it also comes as a PDF, with the ROOL C Development Kit

The fails the “floating around” specification :-)

I rather think Bruce was after some documentation to refer to while writing a chapter or two.

Actually found an .iso image of the original CD with all those manuals on it!
