- My news server is really messed at the moment, and I can't get to csa2, so
- since all this SI! talk has been going around, what does SoftSwitch do? It
- multitasks P8 programs? I tried it once, and it looked okay, but I couldn't
- get it working..
-
- Couldn't you create a "Compatiblity" Aux type for some SI programs and have
- programs in seperate windows? if it writes to the screen, it's incompatible,
- but those "Mac-like" programs that follow all of the "Hell Laws" (aka the
- Apple Human Interface Guidelines) will be able to run in seperate windows..
-
- Jawaid, I thought you said that the SI! Icon was like the Mac Multifinder..
- It SURE doesn't look like one to me.. ;)
