In SunView alerts and menus are displayed in 'blocking mode' This implies
that no other application can be started until the alarm is responded to
or menu item is selected.  Is there an easy way to override this blocking
mode? For example, I would like to dump the screen while such an alert (or
menu) is displayed. Any ideas?
