Re: [Newbie] Hello... I am lost.

You have I hope found the example code in SDK:Examples/GUI and SDK:Examples/Reaction ? I have now. :-) Well, GUI.. there's no ReAction drawer. I quoted both as my SDK has evolved in place over the years and I wasn't sure if the Reaction drawer was still there or it had all moved to GUI.... I see th...

Re: [Newbie] Hello... I am lost.

Could you give some understanding why one would NOT use startup code? For general application you would nearly always link in the C Library (either newlib or clib2 [use nwelib by default]) . You would build without startup code if writing a shared library, or perhaps a program plugin. So, window si...

Both these two instances have now been fixed in NotePad 53.17 and MultiEdit 1.9 subject to testing etc....

Re: BUG: Notepad's About window will lock out any PD-Menus

THis is probably because of IDCMP_MENUVERIFY not being dealt with in some way. Note if you hold the right mouse buttons down the menus will open eventually as there is specific work arround for this in intuition, at as far as I remeber from other discussions. In notepads case I suspect the reason it...

Re: Exec Bug Report

When you say it "crashes" what do you see?

What you *should* see is Grim Reaper displaying the Alert number you passed to IExec->Alert(). Ie 00000000 in the test case you wrote above.

Alerts() have been redirected to GRs for sometime now.

Re: Is resource.library officially dead ?

I think this is more for legacy support than for new code, there is only a 68k version of it. Though it does have a .l.main file so could be useful for PPC port of ReActor based 68k app etc.
