Everything compiles ok, however when I try to execute it, I immediatly get a segmentation violation. Using edge to debug it, I found it dies upon the very first executable line. The line was originally ginit(); I tried changing this to winopen, but that didn't change things. Anyone have any ideas why it would die on the very first executable line? There is nothing to debug, because it hasn't done anything. -- Brent
