I have been having a major problem with the console device in my program. I need some serious help on this!.
I open the console.device for output on my main window. I output to it using CMD_WRITE, and I read keypressed using IDCMP_RAWKEY events (That is using the IDCMP Port of the window, not using RAW events from console). I am trying to open the console.device with charcter mapping and copy/pasyte support. The problem is, I can open the device alright and cursor appears fine, but as soon as I go to drag the mouse over some text and copy it, nothing happens.
I have tried fiddling with IDCMP events, messages etc. I have tried sendoing off a fake read request to see if that is it, I have tried turning off the cursor etc, but I can't figure out why it won't let me snap charcters from the window.
Does anyone have experience with opening console.device with copy/paste support. If you do could you PLEASE help. It's very important. Thanx in advance.
