Any

Funny you should ask that - I can't get VisualPrefs to work AT ALL now! It
just hangs the startup-sequence. It's a shame 'cos I love the program...
Well, VisualPrefs is about the biggest hack this side of Birdie and I
think it must dislike CGX4 - it worked OK with CGX3.
One thing to do is to make sure it has a big enough stack, but that didn't
work for me. Maybe FastIPrefs would help, too, but that made window
drawing slower than with OCS on my system.
If you get on any better, then tell me 'cos I really want VisualPrefs
working again!
Cheers,
Neil Caunt
