How can I find out which screen is "on top?" Also, once I find the top screen, is it kosher to create a window on it? I'm hacking up someone's clock program, and I'd like to have the clock always visible on the top screen. Or is this A Bad Thing? Lots of programs create their own screens, and it would be nice to see the clock no matter what was running. Thanks in advance. -- -Peter Schachte pds@quintus.uucp ...!sun!quintus!pds

Screen sharing standards, handler specs, etc. are being discussed by third parties on BIX though. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Carolyn Scheppner -- CATS >>Commodore Amiga Technical Support<< UUCP ...{allegra,ihnp4,rutgers}!cbmvax!carolyn PHONE 215-431-9180 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
