Okay, here comes my next salvo of St questions...
1) This is a strange one. I wrote a routine that works like
graf_dragbox (Drags a rectangle within a bigger rectangle
until the button is lifted.) The difference is that I had it draw
a raster image instead of a rectangle. (I am doing cut and paste
stuff, and this is how I paste, by dragging the bits and stop when
I PRESS the button (instead of lifting it.)) I use vq_mouse to
monitor the mouse coordinates and the button state. The problem is
that when I click the button, the AES queues an event. I tried just
flushing the button click event by doing an evnt_button afterwards,
but the event is not always a click. If the mouse happened to be
positioned over a "full box" on a window, the AES would queue
a window full request. So, the question is, is there any way to stop
the event accumulation? How is graf_dragbox written?
2) I want to patch an Alt-Help driver into memory. Someone told me
that the Alt-help vector was at $502. I figured the best way was
to use a terminate and stay resident program that would set the
vector, and sit around. BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE PTERMRES()!
How do I find the value of the amount of memory to keep? Help!
3) I'm still looking for line-A TextBlt code. Any example of TextBlt
that works will be GREAT!
