This HOWTO provides a simple template for creating Darwin HOWTOs, using DocBook XML. Even if you don't author your HOWTO in XML, please follow something close to this layout.
This is the HTML output from the XML file. You can get the XML version of this file here.
If you think of something that should be added to this template, please email <[email protected]>.

The upper-left corner of the rectangle has the coordinates (0,0). */ OSErr HMBalloonRect (const HMMessageRecord *inMessage, Rect *outRect);
