described in other chapters. Topics include:
■ How the system automatically indicates it is busy
■ How your application or transport can allow users to hide and show
status slips
■ What your application should do if it schedules alarms or other actions
■ What role sound should play in your application or transport
■ How your application should enable users to find data in it
■ How your application should enable users to file their data in folders
■ How your application or transport can have the Intelligent Assistant
respond to a user’s written request for action
■ Where and how to provide users with on-screen help
■ Where and how to provide user preference settings for your application
or transport
All these topics are described in terms of the applications and transports
that come with most Apple MessagePad models. Applications and transports
you develop should follow these models.
