Does anyone know how to access the system global WindowList in Think
Pascal 3.0? It does not seem to be defined.
Please reply be e-mail. Thanks.

It does not seem to be defined. SysEqu.p has all of the low-memory globals defined in it, including WindowList ($9D6). I recommend using the FrontWIndow function to return a pointer to the frontmost window.

Think adds some of it's window in the window list. I think I have bitten off more than I can chew. Looks like I have to rewrite FrontWindow and SelectWindow and handle activate and hiliting on my own.
