Except, note that (on Windows at least) the messageWindow (at runtime)
doesn't seem to work in 8.5 the way it did with 8.0. Never had a problem
under 8.0 - 8.5 seems to be a different story.
There is no messageWindow line in the 8.5 "director.ini" file and adding
messageWindow
to your "projector.ini" does not produce any result at all.
I've just been informed that in 8.5 I should set the debugPlaybackEnabled
property
to TRUE to display the messageWindow with a projector or Shockwave -
Director online help says the same. However, under 8.5, this doesn't seem to
be working for me either.

Sure. You will need a .INI file of the same name as the projector in the
same folder as the projector.
So, if your projector is SIMON.EXE then you will need (if you don't have
one already) a file called SIMON.INI
This is a text file, and you can edit it with Notepad (or SimpleText if
Mac). If you have an existing one, just amend it, otherwise create a new
file, or copy over the DIRECTOR.INI from the Director folder and rename it,
then edit it.
Make a section that looks like this (put it at the end of the file, or the
very top, to simplify things):
[Settings]
MessageWindow=1
FullScreen=0
UseTitleBar=1
And that should bring it up. The FullScreen and UseTitleBar are only
necessary if you have a full-screen projector to begin with, otherwise just
do the MessageWindow line.
