Geoffrey,
ProWrite's current requester (the one in version 3.1) is not all that
different in functionality from the ASL requester (the one that Commodore
supplies with Kickstart 2.0). About the only major difference in
functionality is that ProWrite's lets you use the text entry box for typing
either disk/path names, file names, or both simultaneously, whereas the ASL
one makes you type disk/path names in one box, and the filename (and
filename only) in another.
However, if you are referring to the "3-D" look in the Kickstart 2.0 file
requesters when you talk about "following the Amiga conventions", then
ProWrite 3.2 will indeed have such a 3-D look.
But if by "Amiga conventions" you are referring to neither functionality
nor appearance, then I don't really understand your comment.
(BTW, there really are not any real "Amiga conventions" when it comes to
these things–even the recent "Amiga Style Guide" book is inconsistent and
incomplete.)
