- Hello,
-
- I have just recently started doing GEM stuff with Sozobon C and
- have created an alert box program, very simple, it just displays an
- alert box and you click the button to end the program. I was hoping that
- it would not exit from the desktop though. I run Neodesk and when I use
- this program, Neodesk unloads, the alert box pops up on its own blank
- screen, I click the button, and the Neodesk reloads. This is not what I
- want, it takes time to do the above and I want to place this programs
- icon on the Neodesk desktop and be able to call it up when doing other
- things just to quickly see it. How do you create and alert box that will
- simply display itself but no cause the desktop to go away?
- And, since I'm already here. Does anyone have any idea how to
- place a graphic on the newdesk desktop and manipulate it? I do not
- have any books for the ST and programming what code I have produced has
- been largely through trial and error and looking in ancient ST log mags
- with Clayton Walnums C articles. Any help with either would be great and
- I'll try to post anything that I manage to create that is neat. Please
- E-mail.

- Thanks,
-
- Stephan
