Creating and Closing Windows /

GetNewWindow

NOT RECOMMENDED WITH MAC OS 8

Creates a new monochrome window from a window resource. The GetNewWindow function was originally implemented before the advent of Color QuickDraw. In Mac OS 8, you should call the Color QuickDraw function GetNewCWindow (see the "Window Manager" chapter in Inside Macintosh: Macintosh Toolbox Essentials) instead of GetNewWindow to programmatically create a window, because Color QuickDraw is always available in Mac OS 8.
