You were correct about Alt-Enter causing problems with Tame 5.1 etc.
This appears to cause considerable confusion and must be responsible
for my additional windows. I can use the menu option to switch to
full screen and then I do not see the same behaviour.
Experiment with these in the .tam file:
/TameConsole WinKeys = -#40 ; Alt-Enter will enter hardware full
screen - uncomment to use Tame full screen
/TameConsole WinKeys = -#8000 ; Do not use cursor keys to mark text
/TameConsole WinKeys = +#10000 ; Alt-F4 can exit the app
I have had to move to Tame 6.0, however, because of a standby problem
with Tame 5.1 rc7 ( it shuts down with errors if I try to enter
standby) and other problems with rc8 and rc9 which appear to try to
lauch GoXY (I presume this is also some subroutine in Tame).
You mean windows standby?
With Tame 6.0, so long as I set the correct number of screen lines I
require in the desktop shortcut and then if I am using more than 25
lines, I add three lines by using D SL=** then I seems to operate very
consistently. I have needed no other configuration.
The only problem I now have is again entering standby. On
re-emerging, I find that the cursor will no longer scroll and if I
have the Tame status bar activated then the little green/red activity
bar in the left shoots to the top of the screen. I have to shut down
and reload to get it to work satisfactorily again. Are you able to
check if you experience similar behaviour? I have contacted David
Thomas but he could not repeat it with his setup (I'm running Windows
2000, but you have XP, I think.)
This doesn't happen on the three XP setups I use.
