From: "Phil Shapiro" <phils@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu>
Subject: THINK Back v1.1 (now supports THINK Pascal!)
Here's the latest version of THINK Back. In this version, I've added
support for THINK Pascal as well as THINK C. Other new features are:
- use of a time manager task to regulate calls to WaitNextEvent,
allowing for better control over multifinder friendliness
- use of the new icon manager calls, for color notification icons
THINK Back is an extension that lets you put compiles in the
background. If you're using THINK C or THINK Pascal, you can use this
INIT to let you start a long compile, put THINK C or Pascal in the
background, and use your machine for something else while the
compiler's working. When the compile is complete, the Notification
manager is used to tell you that it's done.
See the enclosed ReadMe for more info. Note that this is *not* an
official Symantec Extension, and it is not an update to THINK C or
THINK Pascal. It is, however, something that I hope THINK programmers
will find useful.
