[alt.sources.amiga] Screens and Whatnot

mrimages@beach.gal.utexas.edu (05/16/91)

Is there any way to modify the bitmap of a screen opened by another
application safely or semi-safely, or hack-ily safely?  I would like to change
the screens of my bulletin board program to print out data from another program
running separately.  I have no problem writing to the screen, but after I do
so, I have problems opening and closing new screens, and I often get the GURU
8100000c after doing other tasks like trying to compile.  I am using AMigaDOS
2.0 and I always lock the IntuitionBase w/ LockIBase before reading where the
screen I want is located. I am NOT changing any data in it.

Any help would be appeciated!
