I have a couple of programs that I would like to revamp
with this stuff, however, most users around here have wb3.1 not 3.5
so I can't use Reaction, several use MUI for other apps
so that shouldn't be a problem, but several others don't...
What I think I should do is use native BOOPSI classes,
that way it will work anywhere, as well as being portable to the
new Amiga using BOOPS, which I guess will be very similar
to BOOPSI on the classic,, (just assuming)
So I would be interested in getting some basic examples of
BOOPSI class windows & gadgets thereon, if anybody is
willing to supply demo's or can tell me where they can be found.
