    DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
    Scholin, Sullivan & Scragg

    OK, but a bit superficial, with about a third of the book with
    "reference" API docs that everyone should have anyway.  Still, it has
    about the best section on writing online help that I've seen (for that
    matter about the only section on writing online help ...).

    Cameron Hughes  Thomas Hamilton  Tracy Hughes
    John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
    1995
    ISBN 0-471-11809-5

    This book covers the iostreams classes, including manipulators,
    user-defined extraction and insertion functions, and how to derive new
    iostreams classes.  It also does a nice introduction of extending the
    iostream classes using some of OS/2's PM/GPI functions, OS/2's
    multimedia (sound/graphics) functions, and the communication ports.
    This book helps "to clear" the way, for the
"confused" OS/2 C++
    programmer, when extending the iostream classes with the many
    different OS/2 devices.
