Section 3- Windows Overview

Windows allow you to view many applications simultaneously. Each application is contained within its own window and you may have several windows open at one time. Although you are able to see the contents of several open windows, only one window may be active at a time. Any commands you execute (such as cut, paste, or print) apply only to the active window.

Section 4 introduces the parts (or tools) of the Macintosh OS window and Section 5 -11 discusses how to control the Macintosh OS window using the various parts or tools.
