I'm using Wingz on Sun, and for a 9 character function name, I use "\\011get_count". i.e. the number is in octal, and our C requires 3 digits. So I guess your numbers perhaps should be \\011, \\007, \\012 and \\010. Now, can you tell me how I can ensure that the external function is loaded automatically, and only once. Is there an autoload type macro. I've tried 'on activate', but that executes every time the mouse goes into the window.
