[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Problems with BEEPinit-like programs

milo@ndmath.UUCP (Greg Corson) (02/14/89)

I'm having a weird problem with a Mac program I'm working on.

It seems like if the user has BEEPinit, Soundmaster or some other
program that patches in BEEP sounds it confuses the displays on
my program.  I can't imagine why this happens because:

1. I don't do anything with sound yet (other than call SysBeep).
2. The program is VERY plain Mac code with no funny tricks other
   than writing to an off-screen bitmap (and I do that entirely
   with quickdraw, no custom graphics hacks).

Any ideas?  I'm using MPW as a development system.  The only thing
I do that I can think of is the calls to SysBeep and frequent
calls to TickCount are somehow getting messed up by the BEEPinit.

Please respond via USENET mail...I don't get on line often enough
to read responses in news.
