Near the end of July a FindWindow() routine to find the current console
window was posted by deven@rpi.edu.  The routine works fine, in as much as
I can locate the console window and extract the current size, position
etc., but when I attempt to resize, move or change the window in any way I
get a Software Failiure.
 
Here's an excerpt from my program:
 
 
      struct Window *console;
 
      console = FindWindow();
      SizeWindow( console, 10,10);
 
 
Any suggestions?
