Safe Alert 10 C

SafeAlert is a set of routines that is meant to reduce the worry involved in attempting to display modal alerts while your application is in the background. Instead of using functions such as StopAlert, NoteAlert, or CautionAlert, you can use calls to SafeAlert. SafeAlert automatically determines whether your application is in the foreground, and based on this (and some other preferences which are all programmer-settable) information can do one or all of the following: o Display a Notification Manager notice if you are not the foreground application o Display a blinking icon of your application in the application menu o Display a diamond next to your application o Display a modal or movable modal alert o Display an alert from dynamic or resource-based information o Automatically remove the alert after a specified period of time Author: Todd Clements (todd@kagi.com or Todd_Clements@hmc.edu) Release: 1.0, December 27, 1996
