Would someone be kind enough to suggest several book titles on Arexx programming for Amiga Users with little or no programming experience? I would like to know prices and addresses/phone #s, etc. if available. It's becoming clear that Amiga Users are going to have to get their feet wet if they want to use programs interactively with Arexx? Can anyone help me out? Regards, S.P. from Tokyo.

It seems like I read about an upcoming book specifically on AREXX, possibly by Eric Gigure. Does anybody know anything about this? —Mike,

I talked with Eric Giguere and there is a book coming soon. He didn't say specifically that he wrote it (we talked via email) but it sounded like it. It sounded like the book isn't going to be as much a programming manual as on how to interface with other programs that have AREXX ports. I'm still looking forward to it. —Mike,
