Toolbox

The toolbox contains many libraries and we are only describing a few that will be useful for our programming purpose.

QuickDraw library is the standard graphics library. It has many commands that can help you draw many type of shapes. You can also change the color palette for each line and the color within the palette to use many colors.

Events library contains commands for you to read mouse and keyboard status.

MiscTool Library contains some miscellaneous commands like beeping the speaker or get the system tick count (number of 60th-second intervals since the system started).
