- Another list of questions from a confused programmer.}i
-
- 1) I still have that problem with my program working great under multi-finder
- but not under finder. I got MacsBug which lets me see what my memory looks
- like after the program crashes, but this doesn't help me a lot because I can't
- seem to figure out what the memory SHOULD look like. I'm gonna go find a book
- on MacsBug today, so that might help, but any suggestions peole have would
- be helpful.
-
- 2) What EXACTLY does TEGetText() do? I have a couple ideas of what it
- might do, but IM isn't specific. One, it might simply return a handle to
- the text already in memory under the TERecord. Or it might create it's own
- relocatable space in memory and copy the data over. If it does the last do
- I need to dispose it ever?
-
- 3) When calling TENew(), does it allocate the entire 32k text space or does
- it start it off small and keep enlarging it as the text gets larger?
