Subject: NeXT WDEF INIT
I have hacked the NeXt Windows INIT, so that it works correctly under
system 7. It turned out that there was some new window type(s) intro-
duced in system 7, so some more case switches had to be added... It
also fixes the problems (in some windows) with HyperCard 2.x and
MacWrite II. I also added some new close and zoom icons. Unfortunately,
these are only B&W bitmaps, and sometimes the old (drawn) icons come
back on color screens. This is only a cosmetic problem, however. I
have used the hacked INIT on my SE/30, my PowerBook 100, and a IIci at
work with no problems (using system S-7.0) for 9 or 10 months. Under
low memory conditions, the system sometimes will revert to the WDEF in
ROM, but it does not seem to cause any harm.
This Compact Pro archive includes source code in Think C. There is
also code for a small application (Tester) that can be used to test any
changes in the source code before you try to install it in your system.
If anyone cares to add color bitmaps, it would be great...
I don't remember where I got it from in the first place, but the original
authors are credited in the source.
