- I need to have independent key-converssion for every window. This windows
- are using graphics for display, they are not console windows.
-
- I have some questions concerning the console.device (type CONU_LIBRARY):
-
- * CreatePort():
- Can I use a global port for all the consoles? Can it be the message port
- of the windows?
- Why do I need it anyway if I don't expect a message from the console?
-
- * CreateExtIO():
- Can I use a global request, changing the ->io_Device when switching
- windows?
- or a local request, preserving the ->io_Device with the window?
-
- * Should I attach the console to the window the way it is done with a
- CONU_STANDARD window?
-
- ioreq->io_Data = (APTR)window_p;
- ioreq->io_Length = sizeof(struct Window);
- error = OpenDevice(....,ioreq...
-
- * Command CD_ASKDEFAULTKEYMAP:
- Does it return a *copy* of the whole keymap structure in a given buffer,
- or a *pointer* to an existing structure?
- What is sizeof(*KeyMap)? Does it mean the size of the pointer? Shouldn't
- it be sizeof(struct KeyMap *)?
