- I am willing to pay for source code for a combination init/cdev that
- will allow WaitNextEvent, GetNextEvent, etc to work as normal except when
- in "intercept mode". Intercept mode can be turned on and off in the cdev.
- In intercept mode, a window should be displayed when an application has
- called one of the WaitNextEvent family of functions. The window should allow
- the event record to be edited. An 'Ok' button will cause the edited event to
- be the one that the calling application will receive. A 'Cancel' button will
- allow the event to be passed through to the application as if nothing different
- had happened. This must work without conflict with other applications and
- utilities under Systems 6 and 7. The source should be in Think C 5.0.
-
- There is a strong possibility for future work. If you're interested,
- please send me your lowested fixed bid and approximate completion time.
- Also please include a description of your background. I'm more interested
- in getting decent code that works well than in being impressed with
- resume-like prose, but I do need to know that the job will get done.
- (If you really want to impress me, send me a binhexed executable that does
- what I want instead of your background. You'll have my attention, and
- we'll talk about the source for me and the money for you. :-)
- Thank you.
