- I have written an extension/Control Panel and would, of course, like
- for its little icon to march along the bottom of the screen at
- startup time (user-configurable, of course!). I know that there is
- some 'standard' code around by Paul Mercer (?) called ShowINIT that
- does this. I snagged a copy of that out of Macintosh Programming
- Primer volume 2, and hacked it a little so that it will display an
- icl4 or icl8 icon on color screens, depending on their depth.
- However, this code seems to assume that all of a user's icons will fit
- in one row, which they don't always.
-
- Is there a version of ShowINIT around that properly handles multiple
- rows and color icons? If so, where can I get my grubby paws on a copy?
