This is what I have found out: Opening console.device with a unit number of THREE (3) turns on the inbuilt OS 2.0 snapping. To make this work, you must set the window SIMPLE_REFRESH flag. Unfortunately you must ALSO turn off the MOUSEBUTTONS flag for the window (don't really understand why, snapping isn't turn on by clicking in a window but by *dragging* ...) (I have just included this feature into NComm, but unfortunately snapping can not be used when my 'ANSI mouse' feature is turned on, since it needs the MOUSEBUTTONS flag :-( Really irritating...)
