BASIC for the Newton: Programming for the Newton with NS BASIC
by John Schettino and Liz O'Hara

Published by AP Professional. ISBN: 0-12-623955-X
 

Important!: NS BASIC Demo and Newton 2.0

The first printing of our book includes a Demo version of NS BASIC that only works with pre-Newton 2.0 units. Since Newton 2.0 did not exist when we wrote the book, we had no way of testing the Demo with Newton 2.0. The book now contains an updated Demo NS BASIC that does work with Newton 2.0. If you have a copy of the book with the original Demo disk, and you upgrade to Newton 2.0, you can contact AP Professional and get the version of Demo NS BASIC that works with Newton 2.0. You need not do this if you have a MP100, 110, or 120 with Newton 1.3.
