Locked (modal?) dialogs

Locking dialog boxes wouldn't be too hard, provided you have a =
setFocus(iWindow) procedure.  I don't think that exists yet, since =
that's something Windows usually does behind the scenes.  However, if =
you can make a procedure like that, locking the dialog involves a very =
simple routine:

procedure onFocus_mainWindow()

  if lockedDialogFlag =3D TRUE then
    setFocus(lockedDialogFlag) -- assumes lockedDialogFlag is a positive =

-- integer equal to the index of the Dialog Window.  When the window is
-- hidden/destroyed, be sure to set lockedDialogFlag to zero.
  end if

end procedure

onFocus[mainWindow] =3D routine_id("onFocus_mainWindow")

Is this doable?
