Kevin, Hi! It's been a long time since we last talked on Delphi. I don't get on
Compuserve that often but I just thought I'd drop in and see what's going on
here. I know that you've been involved recently with some OSK projects and
that's part of what I wanted to talk about. A few months ago, I picked up a
System IV computer and I've been spending some time getting familiar with it. A
couple questions:

1) Has a standard been talked about yet for graphics on the OSK machines? Has
anyone come up with standardized GetStt/PutStt routines or windowing codes yet?
If not, are there plans to create such a standard?

2) How about a standard for mouse drivers? We were just discussing some of the
specs on Microsoft & Logitec mice over on Delphi and I'd like to write a driver
to use these. But, there's no sense working on one if it can't be used
universally.

Any information you can give me that will help me to write standardized user
programs would be appreciated.
