[comp.windows.ms] Neko 1.1

burhans@mizar.usc.edu (Mustang Sally) (06/26/91)

Hi:

I downloaded this fun program from cica.cica and have had a problem
with it. It seems to take over Windows--I can barely get the mouse
to respond to me so I can click the right buttons and menu items to
try and change the settings or just get out of this program. At the
same time it hits my harddisk almost constantly. As long as the
Neko program is running the hard disk light is on almost constantly.
I have a 286 clone that I tried running this on at home. My machine
here at work...a 386sx clone...has the older version of Neko running
and doesn't have these problems. Anyone else experience difficulty
with this? Thanks.

 I'll fix the problem and I'll put the new version on Cica real soon.
Basically, what is happening is that the bitmap is being loaded from the hard 
disk.  You will not notice the effect on the faster machines, but not everybody
has a fast pc. 

I'll release Neko from the window real soon, so hang on please.
