There is a problem using the public s/w program "JOURNAL" for MS-Windows.
The way it uses the function SetWindowsHook is not correct according to
the manual. You are not supposed to uninstall a filter function by calling
SetWindowsHook with the filtertype and a NULL-pointer as it is done in the
journal program, You are supposed to use
UnhookWindowsHook (<filter type>, <lpfnhookfct>)
BUT it does not work.
Do anybody know what is the problem using UnhookWindowsHook ?
I suppose You have noticed that the original journal program does halt
the system if You press the function keys after having uninstalled
journal by pushing <F7>. The filter is probably blocking the system.
