For example: I update some things on main dialog (time, scrolling text etc) but when I click "about application", redrawing stops and I have to close that about dialog. it's the limitation of CFLib or I miss something? how to use ARGV? I have working drag&drop, av server (btw teradesk is buggy as hell, I have to report some bugs) but I'm still no able to use commandline's long names - more concretly, using drag&drop on the application's name in desktop. In teradesk there's a option "use argv", jinnee probably uses argv all the time but no success - I try to search "ARGV=" environment in application init but nothing is found. For example, Pure C did this for me quite well - there are 3 starting module to choose (standard, ARGV and ARGV & env, IIRC) but in MiNTLib? If I use toswin, there's no problem.. so the problem is how to force desktop or read that ARGV with long names of the files I drag on application (before application's start - so no VA protocol or d&d) long names & fsfirst: it's nice we have some Pdomain() call but FsFirst and FsNext ignores long names completely. On fat32/vfat partitions they return famous name~1.ext type but on ext2 they ignore(!) that files! So I have directory with one "normal" name and two long names and the result? FsFirst found one file... If this functions aren't supposed to work with long names, how to list the directory content with such names? using opendir(), readdir()? Aren't they MiNT-only calls? -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- MiKRO Atari XE/XL/Mega STE/Falcon060 http://mikro.atari.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
