I have a small application that I'm trying to convert to an FKEY. My
FKEY's usually work for a little while, but end up crashing whatever
program they're running under, so I'm obviously not doing something 
right.

I'm writing this in Aztec C, which provides an option to compile
using A4 instead of A5 to access the appliation globals.  They
recommend using this for drivers and DA's so I should be using it
for FKEY's as well.  But I want to use Quickdraw globals, like
randSeed and screenBits, in my FKEY so I want to use A5 for that.

Does someone have an example of an FKEY written in C or Pascal, and
hopefully one that uses Quickdraw globals?  I'd appreciate it,
because I'd like to know how to cut this Gordian knot.
