Hello:

I've some questions about the Zinc interface library:

1 - Windows: why are the controls (like radio buttons and check
    boxes) from the example programs not standard Windows? Instead,
    they appear above the corresponding item, not on the same line.
    Also, you must click on the box itself, you can'tjust click the text.

2 - General: why can't you double-click the title bar to maximize a window.
    Same with system button.

3 - Demo.exe: looking fine, but definitely hangs the machine if you open
    some windows, switch back and forth from text tto graphics. Why can't
    you Cancel the Exit dialog box? I've got a 386/33 with 8M and QEMM386,
    running DOS 5 on VGA.

If someone has used Zinc or can help me out otherwise, please let me know.
