Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion. I do a lot of optimization testing and I will pick the best solution to benefit the end user. Most programmers write Subs for every little thing. That's why code produced today is bloated and needs the latest and greatest PC to run it worth a damn.

Hello.. I need some help in making TSR with PB 3.00c.. I know how to make a TSR, but I don't know how to make it stop. Could someone show me some code on how to make the TSR stop if I run the program again with a command like like /U to unload it, or something?

The graphics routines are done, for the most part. The help I need is more on the technical end. I'm a little confused about the 'SET METHOD OF POPUP' as mentioned in the 'POPUP.TIP' file that comes with PowerBASIC 3.0. The POPUP INTERRUPT syntax given in the tip file is as follows: POPUP INTERRUPT &H18 ' &H18 is used in the example When I incorporated this into some code of mine and tried to compile I found that I needed to use a comma as the on-line help shows in it's syntax : POPUP INTERRUPT , , ON|OFF, ON|OFF | | I could use some clarification on these as well <<<------|------| How does the timeout in ticks (above) relate to the number of timer ticks as referred to in: POPUP QUIET Could someone "please" steer me in the right direction !!! Do I put the POPUP INTERRUPT in one module along with the graphics that will be displayed when the screen saver is active; AND the call to the interrupt in a main module along with a POPUP QUIET statement ??? Is the POPUP SLEEP USING... statement in both or where does it fit in ??? I've tried various combinations and permutations and obviously not had any success so far. If I were to attempt the POPUP MULTIPLEX method instead, what would be the chances of using the same ax mask / dx mask as another programmer whose TSR was previously installed by the end user ??? ANY help from ANYONE from ANYWHERE would be VERY appreciated !!! Self taught. Code a lot. Save some cash ?
