Bill and others
In our recent project upgrading Frank Conroy's application to R:Base 6.5++
for Windows, I'm sorry to say that we have occasionally found play back
files to be troublesome at times. We tried similar playback file techniques
to
force fields to come up in edit mode in regions, and mostly what we got for
our attempts were garbage characters written in fields and computer hangs.
Great idea, but not reliable at this point. If anyone has found ways to
MAKE
them more stable, we'd love to hear it! We find our USUAL playbacks which
write character values work fine, but those playing back navigation keys
etc. are more likely to crash.
