Thanks for the suggestions. Actually, im modifying already the contextual menu to handle more commands (like edit a group) and the command/control hotkeys to work more like in HC. The error window is 3 times taller and allows copy paste (save to log will come too). But no one answered my

Embedded Metacard and games development....

I guess this question doesn't just relate to "games" development, but the more general issue of using Metacard as a platform for serious (C/C++) development. The question is: what works, and what doesn't work when considering prototyping a project in Metacard - and then finishing it off by

I came across an interesting problem, and Kevin helped me solve it (thanks, Kevin!) so I thought I would post the solution here. The problem is the way background messages get passed when you have more than one background/group on a card. That's openBackground, closeBackground, and
