- Can anyone offer an explanation of what happens differently for background-
- only applications where the stack is concerned? My bg-only app comes up with
- a 2K stack -- not enough! Clearing the bg-only bit brings it up with 24K
- of stack. I've tried increasing the stack size by using SetApplLimit with
- the address of the stack base - desired stack size, which seems to work fine
- iff the bg-only bit isn't set. MemError isn't being set in either case.
- Help!
-
- Is there ANY documentation on bg-only besides the few words in the process
- manager docs? I'd appreciate pointers to anything! Thanks.
