- Hi,
-
- As part of an xview application that I am writing I would like to include a
- journalling facility. That is, a facility which records all of the events produced
- by the user since they last saved their file. This would then give the ability
- to reconstruct a diagram in the event of power failure, (or perish-the-thought,
- core dumps ).
-
- I know it can be done because DecWrite does a very similar thing. Has anyone
- had any experience of this sort of thing? Am I re-inventing the wheel? If I were to
- code this from scratch what events should I look for (my application is essentially a drawing
- package).
-
-
- PLEASE HELP ME......
-

- PS. Could any kind soul who responds to this message EMail me rather than just
- posting a reply.....thanks
