[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Funny bugs in LSC

Not to make LSC look bad, but those were two unimportant but funny bugs I found
in Lighspeed C version 3.0 (or, as they call it, THINK C):

Make two text windows next to each other.  Select a few lines on the, say, left
window.  Then quickly double-click on the other window and drag down (or up) to
auto-scroll.  If you do this a few times, you see the wrong window scroll...

The other one can be a real nuisance:   Make you project window as high as
possible, so that you just can reach the resize box and title bar at the edges
of the screen.  Then resize it to be one single pixel higher.  The resize box
jumps under the bottom of your screen, forever out of reach.  This is because
they round the window size up instead of down, to a whole number of lines.

I like LSC, but it would be so much more powerful if it had a good
optimizer option, costing an awful lot of compile time, but producing better
code.  This option is then to be used for the final version only or so.
