I'd be delighted to help, and maybe I will get
time at some random point in the next week or so, but it's looking dodgy. I
have 90,000 words to research and write, and 9 weeks to do it! The publisher's
breathing over my shoulder is misting up my monitor as it is.
Maybe if you can break down the problem and post
bits here I (and others) may be able to shed some light, but I can't see me
having time to download and mess around. I'm really sorry, as I'd very much
like to support your effort - indeed, I was thinking of giving some help once
the book's out of the way, maybe we can plug some STLSoft stuff in there
;).

Also could I get your help on something
Matthew if you have time ?
Im using the scintilla MFC wrappers found
here : http://www.atari-soldiers.com/mfc_scintilla.zip , and Im
having trouble getting the caret to show up ready for typing when I create
new files, and also when DIDE loses focus, then regains it. You have
to click on the view to be able to edit.
I have tried scintillas methods of
:
SetCurrentPos( )
SetSelectionStart( )
GrabFocus()
And also MFC's
SetActiveWindow()
SetFocus()
SetCaretPos()
I have tried these in an overrided
CView::OnActivateView( ... ) function , a DisplayErrorFunction,
OnInitalUpdate(), OnUpdate() etc... without any luck.
Im stuck on this , dont know what else to try
:/. Thanks for any help!
