- Try this - use Multiview to view a text file on a seporate screen, not
- workbench. Resize the window and bammo! Everything just stops. It doesn't
- even finish redrawing the window. Of course I haven't played with this
- enough to determine if this is Multiview or something else I'm running.
- I am using xsize, I guess that may have something to do with it.
-
- I'd try your tests but I don't want to crash my machine just now. :-)
