- INTRODUCTION
-
- Awhile back I wrote a little program PUSHBU.PRG to produce pushbuttons with
- pop-out action and a number of people (including myself) have used them
- without any compaints. Nonetheless, PUSHBU.PRG was really never properly
- integrated into the Get System, mainly because of the way it handled
- the waitstate.
-
- Meanwhile, another public domain offering by Dan Comeau (RADIOBTN.PRG) is
- well integrated with the get system, but does not include any push buttons,
- and if you're not already using RADIOBTN.PRG you may wish to take a look
- at it. Anyway, to make a long story shorter, I finally have gotten around
- to putting my push buttons into a modified version of Dan's button engine.
-
- The buttons seems to work well based on the way I routinely use them;
- however, no one else has tested them, so let me know if you find any bugs.
- All testing of PUSHBUTN.PRG has been done with Clipper 5.01a and RTLINK.
-
- Also, in the not too distant future I'll put out an upgrade which
- includes monochrome buttons, VALID, 5.2 testing, and whatever else I can
- think of, and maybe FT mouse support. BTW, the monochrome routine is
- included, it just isn't connected...so if someone would like to save me
- a little work please feel free to have at it.
