Re: [Ql-Users] EXT_PROC

My version of QLIB didn't come with such a supplement for some reason, so it
won't be in the manual I created. If I can get the supplement, I'll update
the manual.

> Chapter 15!?
An 8 page supplement entitled "Release 3.3 Enhancements"

Headings (to give you an idea what it covers):

Introduction
Notes For Minerva Users
SuperBASIC Changes With Minerva
WHEN Handling
WHEN ERROR
Entering WHEN ERROR
Exiting WHEN ERROR
Turning Off WHEN ERROR
WHEN ERROR and Q_ERR
WHEN ERROR in compiled programs
WHEN ERROR and Externals
WHEN variable
Stopping WHEN Processing
WHEN variable in compiled programs
Trace Options
Error Console
Free Running Procedures
QLIB_SYS
New Error Messages

If anyone has time to OCR this I'll gladly post it on my QLib page - I'm
afraid I don't know if the information has been integrated into the v3.36
manual on my site or not.

Unfortunately it isn't because it's not just a basic extension. The
functionality itself is implemented in globally visible "things" so that it
can be used from any language, the basic commands are just wrappers for
them.

So what would probably happen is that the linked copy would overwrite any
existing "things" with the same names and everything will crash once you
remove the job again because of dangling pointers.

If you find any bugs we can try to fix them.

No, it isn't, I askes Jochen if I could release QMenu for free and he
agreed. I just didn't have the manual at hand for release and promptly
forgot about it.
