This could be because Qliberator is not able to run under SMSQ properly ; or
it could be because QPC2v2 doesn't like Qliberator; or
it could be both; or
it could be me being a complete idiot :o(  ;or
something else altogether

but .....

Start QPC2v2 and from a clean boot, (800 by 600 res, high colour mode) do
the following :

lrespr win1_qlib_qlib_sys
qlib_use win1_qlib_, win1_qlib_

This loads and configure QLiberator, then the stuff for Screen Snatcher 2
....

dev_use 2, win1_source_ss2_
lrespr dev2_snatch_cde
lrespr dev2_snatch_cfg

The _cde file is an EP3 appendix file holding the required menu and code
file to be compiled into the application,
the _cfg file is a BASCONFIG file holding the config block for the
application - again, to be compiled in.

Load the application ....

qload dev2_snatch

and compile it ....

liberate
set the options (no windows, +line numbers etc)
source file = dev2_snatch_sav
object file = dev2_snatch_obj

No errors reported.

Run it ......

ex dev2_snatch_obj

it works fine, except that it doesn't vanish from the screen when the
activate loose item is hit - I wonder why ?

Change a line in the source file - makes no difference which one, then save
it ...

qsave dev2_snatch
dev2_snatch_sav exists, overwrite Y/N
select Y to overwrite

ALT P to find and pick the same version of QLiberator again for a recompile
Hit the COMPILE loose item

All of a sudden, I get a screenful of 'ambiguous name' errors. All relating
to Q_ERR_ON/Q_ERR_OFF/Q_ERR/QX etc. The problem stays if I reset the whole
plot, and reload everything as above - now I cannot even compile it the
first time.

I am one very puzzled (and p*ss*d off) programmer I can tell you.
Does QLiberator work under SMSQ - I've seen mentions of using bit 31 in
addresses etc, but my experiences today have been horrendous - I've wasted a
lunch hour and two (yes two) tea breaks trying to re-compile this program !

(I'm going off Malcolm now as well - he suggested the changed :o) - joke !)

Any Ideas anyone ?
