Preface (Description)
---------------------

     Volume Number 2 of the five volume "Best of Interface Age" series is 
significant since it presents thirteen of the most-asked-for system and 
application software articles printed in "Interface Age."

     The articles that are contained within this volume were chosen not only 
for their value as working software systems, but also for their value in 
showing a number of different programming techniques.  We at "Interface Age" 
firmly believe that serious students of software, and those that just enjoy 
making use of software will find this book invaluable.
