[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Think C consoles

mvg@pnet51.orb.mn.org (Mitchell Gossman) (06/03/90)

Is there a way to make consoles used for data input in Think C coexist with
other Mac windows?  For some reason, if I attempt to open other windows, the
global variables for quickdraw aren't initialized, even though there is a call
to InitGraf in the console initialization routine source code!

And if you attempt to call InitGraf yourself, the console window doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

P.S.  If this is not possible, what is the "best" way to easily enter data via
the keyboard for development purposes?  That is, I don't want to fuss with
dialogs since my programs fluctuate from day to day as ideas evolve.
