The "App Studio User's Guide" describes adding new device descriptions to an APSTUDIO.INI file in the section "Editing Device Descriptions." In the second step of this section, the manual tells the user to enter a new section label of [IconDevices] or [CursorDevices]. The way the labels are listed is incorrect.

The labels should both have a space between the two words. In other words, [IconDevices] should be [Icon Devices] and [CursorDevices] should be [Cursor Devices].

In addition, when App Studio is restarted, you must choose New Device Description from the Resource menu, specifying an instance of the appropriate resource (Icon or Cursor), before the new device description shows up in the Device list.
