    Will the REAL Inside Mac Volume V please stand up. Golly it is tough
sometimes. The CopyBits <-> CopyPix change I could believe and figured it
out. The use of GetNewWindow makes sense so you can color a window without
making changes to the source code. What really threw me off however is:
1. The LSC, LSP, and the MPW Assembler interfaces all have a GetNewCWindow
   call or trap.
2. Compiling the code with GetNewWindow and Fediting the GetNewWindow
   opcode to GetNewCWindow worked fine.

From this I gather that the already existing Rom code will not be supported
on direct call. 
Thanks to those who replied on this.
