From: Robert.White@CMU-CS-GANDALF
After two very frustrating weeks I have found that my problem is really
Apple's and I wish to warn you about it.  Situation is as follows:

	I was defining a number of windows and set up my own storage for
them in an array whose indices where also the resource number.  The array
indices ranged from 256 to 261.  I used GetNewWindow.  After Initializing
each window I had the program spit out the specifics of the window...they
were never what I had put into the resource file.  Then I would get a fatal
system error ID=2.  As it turns out the problem is in how the compiler
handles offsets for arrays.  My only modification was to change the indeces
to 1 to 6 and everything works fine!

Beware the user of a Lisa that is developing for the Mac.
