I have a few questions to ask the HC experts out there. I know some of these may be trivial or old questions, but I don't have much experience yet... 1) What is the advantage of XCMDs and XFCNs over regular resources? For what type of applications are resources better than X routines? 2) What is the general process of calling XCMDs and XFCNs? Is using them as easy as it sounds? Where can I get some useful samples? 3) Does anyone know of any archives that I can obtain some helpful programs like ResEdit, Sound/Graphics Resources, etc. from? Thank you in advance for helping me Siamak +---------------------------+ | ugsiamak@cs.buffalo.EDU | | ugsiamak@sunybcs.BITNET | +---------------------------+
