[comp.sys.mac] Vertical Retrace Tasks

rs4u#@ANDREW.CMU.EDU.UUCP (02/26/87)

Does anyone have some Pascal source that demonstrates how
to put a durable task in the vertical retrace queue? By "durable" I 
mean a task that will persist across launches of different applications.
IA good example of such a task is MenuClock or JClock, but I don't know
where source for those is to be found, and I doubt that they're in Pascal, 
at any rate.

Any responses would be much appreciated...

QDial has an example of this.  It's written in MDS Assembler, but it's
fairly well written and understandable.  I'm not sure it has been posted
to the net or not.  If you need a copy of it let me know and I'll
send you a copy. (It is in the public domain - written by Leo LaPorte(?)
