I am using Megamax C to do it. 1) when i call a sub-command using Pexec(0,STcmd,STargs,STenv) [assume they are all char *] the first character of STargs gets dropped or more likely the ptr is getting incremented by 1, putting a leading blank in STargs works but seems silly 2) when the program is called from another (i.e. the megamax shell) the cursor does not appear, if it is called from the desktop all works fine, i have tried calling Cursconf and naming the file .prg, .tos or .ttp but to not avail 3) if Initmous(0,0,0) is used to disable the mouse (is that correct?) i know that you use kbdvbase to get the address of the system interrupt routine, but what about the param struct ? just malloc some memory before exiting the program and pray ?
