Hello....  I've posted this message before, but haven't seen it show up
at any node different from the one where I posted it...  Perhaps that
node isn't putting things on the net, I dunno...  Anyhow, I'm
looking for someone who knows how to change the default *WB* busy pointer
from those silly little zzz's to something else...  I know it can be done
as I've seen a PD program that will change it to the word 'BUSY'. The
author of that program alluded to making the pointer user definable in a
subsequent release, but that never happened, as far as I know. Besides,
I'd rather learn how to do it myself.    I've looked in SysBase and some other
structures, but no where can I find the pointer to the BUSY image....
Anyone have any ideas???   
   
Regards  B F
