:>1) Lattice 4.0.  I've seen some discussion on the net about the compiler
:>defaulting to a 16-bit addressing mode,

:I do Manx C, but I'm pretty sure Lattice only supports 32 bit ints no
:matter what version you own.

	I believe the latest Lattice has both modes, just like Aztec.
It's kind of silly, though.  I for one can't stand using 16 bit ints...
it screws up arithmatic computation.  When I want something to be a short,
I declare it a short and let the compiler optimize out the overhead.

:>window-to-back gadgets) produces a rather annoying "rippling"

:For SMARTREFRESH windows, you should set the NOCAREREFRESH flag, and
:this "rippling" effect will go away.  Your program should have a
:faster user interface.

	Yah, a lot faster.  It was a year before I knew about that one!
*Always* specify NOCAREREFRESH for SMARTREFRESH windows.
