This message turned up in search, but its forum couldn’t be identified from the original transcript, so it may not be linked into its thread.

The easiest way would be for me to point you at Rob Peck's book, "Programmer's Guide to tthe Amiga". Starting on page 58, you will see Signals, followed by Messages starting on page 64, complete with code fragments. As well, there are examples in the chapter on multitasking. The code required is fairly minimal, and of course if you did a FindPort() and found nothing, then you wouldn't need to send anything to it. If you find one, then a message need only be sent when an event occurs that is of interest. I hope you can put it in, and if not, then perhaps in the next release.
