... my .02... I thought about using windows, and a thought struck me: go into your system.ini, my people with windows, and look at your shell line. That is your GUI. The challenge: Make a new GUI. Make your favorite look, using the windows KERNAL. Because all your progman.exe or explorer.exe is is the thing feeding the info into the kernal. To my knowledge, and I will try this, you can run a program from that shell= line. ANY program. for example, windoze, by Irv, is a shell. those graphics are from things like DLL's. SO, you can go and make your own GUI in that, LIKE you can windows. Now, for those who want to test this: DON'T! let me crash-proof it first. Then, when the OK is passed, let's make a 32-bit GUI for our windows '95/98. (I was gonna sat 16-bit, but the euphoria library hasn't got all the things to connect to 16-bit DLL's. BUT, can I be wrong?) the best of wishes, -- "LEVIATHAN" with a scattered writing style. (BTW, the list rejected the message, so if you see this again, sowwiez!) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
