1. IDE standalone editor switching bug ATTN: Judith
I posted this a bit ago, but had Re: before the subject so I think
Judith didn't read it.
Anyway, when I'm using the standalone editor from IDE, and I switch away
from the editor then ALT+TAB back to it, I cannot type into the window.
The cursor keeps flashing, but nothings happens when I press those keys.
To continue normally, I have to click in the window with my mouse.
What's going on here?
I've tried looking at the code, but I'm not really seeing anything obvious.

That didn't seem to work, though it's about exactly what I thought had
to be done. (I just don't know anything about winlib, honestly.) I have
it after onEvent_MainWin, not that it really matters as long as it's
after MainWin is declared, correct?

I'm surprised that isn't working for you. What Window(tm) beast do your run?
I tested on Win98SE. I put the routine at the bottom of editor.exw before:
--start event loop
WinMain( MainWin, Normal )
but where you put it should be ok too.

Um. Never mind. I turn my machine on this morning, and it seems to have
fixed it fine. Perhaps I have more than one copy of it...and wasn't
running the one I was editing. 
Oh well. Thank you.
