1. [WIN] "system" command flashes dos boxes
When I use the "system" command in a Windows program to do some file copy's
and delete's, it causes dos boxes to flash on & off the screen, which I'd
rather not have happen; is there any way to do this without the dos boxes
flashing on & off? They do go away on their own, but I'd rather not have
them flashing distractingly in the windows program.
example:
system("copy ide_code.ew org_code.ew",2)
<snip logic>
system("del ide_code.ew",2 )
system("copy alt_code.ew ide_code.ew",2 )
system("exw.exe ide.exw", 2)
I'm making a Euphoria program to replace the batch files I included to use
to switch between my "auto-paste routines" variation on Judith/David's IDE
and her original.

search the archives for Win32 native file manipulation routines...

Dan,
these functions are built in to win32Lib now. Look up copyFile(),
deleteFile(), moveFile() etc... functions.
copyFile("ide_code.ew","org_code.ew")
<snip logic>
deleteFile("ide_code.ew")
copyFile("alt_code.ew","ide_code.ew")
shellExecuteEx("open","exw.exe","ide.exw", 0, 0, 0)

Derek,
Thanks! I was trying to maintain compatibility with earlier versions of
Win32Lib (.50), rather than use the bleeding edge :) , but maybe I will
just "lift" those sections out from 54, & include them (alt named) in my
prog, if no one has had any problems with them?
