You sure it doesn't do screens? Wouldn't that break the whole point of
being able to select public screens in the MUI settings for programs? I
guess it could just be that you don't get to choose a screen in your
code, but MUI handles it internally. Or the Blitz lib sucks :)

OK, thanks for the info.

Only if your gadtools coding skills suck - I've got it down to a fine art
and it probably only took me 5 years to master ;)

Waaaaa!

Cheers.
