Hi Jim:
The problem you encounter is due to the fact that some of the Intuition
functions are documented improperly as taking 16-bit values and actually
use the full 32-bits, if you look in the 1.2 autodocs you will find they
are specified as USHORT or SHORT when in fact this is wrong. I found this
a long time ago and fixed it, however the now year-old beta version still
has the problem. I'm sorry you have encountered the problem, but I have
to assume the Amiga docs are correct until found otherwise. Obviously,
the Benchmark Modula-2 from Avant-Garde Software does not have the above
problem.
