The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

─────Specifying About-Box Text──────────────────────────────────────────────
 
     The ABOUTBOXQQ subroutine specifies the information displayed in
     the About box that appears when the user selects the About
     command from a QuickWin application's Help menu.
 
     A typical use of ABOUTBOXQQ is:
 
          dummy = ABOUTBOXQQ ('Matrix Multiplier\r    Version 1.0'C)
 
     The character C following the string constant specifies a C
     string, which is terminated with a null character. If your
     program does not call ABOUTBOXQQ, the QuickWin run-time libraries
     supply a default string.
 
     The interface to ABOUTBOXQQ is:
 
          INTERFACE TO INTEGER*2 FUNCTION ABOUTBOXQQ(STR)
          CHARACTER*(*) STR
          END
 
     The STR argument must be null-terminated.
