init_dialog(3alleg4) Allegro manual init_dialog(3alleg4)NAME
init_dialog - Low level initialisation of a dialog. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
DIALOG_PLAYER *init_dialog(DIALOG *dialog, int focus_obj);
DESCRIPTION
This function provides lower level access to the same functionality as do_dialog(), but allows you to combine a dialog box with your own
program control structures. It initialises a dialog, returning a pointer to a player object that can be used with update_dialog() and shut-
down_dialog(). With these functions, you could implement your own version of do_dialog() with the lines:
DIALOG_PLAYER *player = init_dialog(dialog, focus_obj);
while (update_dialog(player))
;
return shutdown_dialog(player);
Note that you are responsible for showing and hiding the mouse cursor, which do_dialog would otherwise do for you, or saving and restoring
the screen contents, as popup_dialog would do for you.

do_dialog - Basic dialog manager function. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
int do_dialog(DIALOG *dialog, int focus_obj);
DESCRIPTION
The basic dialog manager function. This displays a dialog (an array of dialog objects, terminated by one with a NULL dialog procedure), and
sets the input focus to the focus_obj (-1 if you don't want anything to have the focus). It interprets user input and dispatches messages
as they are required, until one of the dialog procedures tells it to close the dialog, at which point it returns the index of the object
that caused it to exit, or until ESC is pressed, at which point it returns -1.

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()
{
malloc(1gb)
return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)

Hey All,
Quick question...
I'm writing a short script to check if a continuous port is running on a server.
I'm using "ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep processName" and I was wondering if it was better/more reliable to just check the
return code from the command or if its better to pipe to... (12 Replies)
I installed NetBSD 6.1.2 amd64 and can't find the apm utility. Is it not in the base system?
Is it necessary to recompile the default amd64 kernel to use apm?
Or is there a new method for power management and suspend/resume? (2 Replies)
Hi,
I am learning shell scripting for the first time. I use AT&T Korn Shell, Version AJM 93u+ 2012-08-01, compiled from source on NetBSD.
So far I have managed to set up what I think is a useful and pleasing shell prompt, which can be seen in the image attached to this post.
