Two questions regarding callable display mangaer ... 1. How does one place a cursor in a window using the pad_$ calls ? 2. How does one put a name in a window ? When you use cp you can specify -n processname which will appear in the top left hand corner in the window. How to do it from pad_$. ?

From the DM I make the window invisible, then visible, so I suppose you could do the same things with pad_$ calls. Or you could just do pad_$dm_command to move the cursor. > 2.

You give it a name when you use pad_$create_window. This also creates a file, so you need to cd to /tmp and then unlink the file after you create the window. Tim

The easiest thing to do (if not the only) is to use a pad_$ call to send the commands to the DM. -- Alphalpha Software, Inc. | motif-request@alphalpha.com nazgul@alphalpha.com |----------------------------------- 617/646-7703 (voice/fax) | Proline BBS: 617/641-3722 I'm not sure which upsets me more; that people are so unwilling to accept responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate everyone else's.
