RE: RSTDSP NOT WORKING

Ron,

there have historically been problems with RSTDSP especially when playing
around with prompt window type code via separate programs.
IIRC RSTDSP only seems to work once off and then needs a new write/exfmt of
the underlying display file to avoid a black screen when you display the
next window.

Some things can simply not be avoided and I know that in the dim and distant
past (couple of years ago) I banged my head against this problem log and
hard (sheer bloodymindedness often works for me) but never got a satifactory
solution.

Not what you wanted to hear <g>

Hope there is somebody on this list with better news for you.

Regards
Graham Smith
