[perl-win32-gui-users] NT/98 incompatibilities?

[Peter E. <Pet...@at...>]

I have a script that reads a file (puts the data into @update) and prints it
to a RichEdit window. This works well on NT but I am having problems with it
on Win98.

As it is being written to the Rich Edit field, the scroll bar starts out
large and scales smaller as more is added (as expected). However,
occassionally on 98 the scroll bar "bounces" back to large and begins
scaling again. When this happens, data is lost as if a buffer fills up and
then gets dumped FIFO. Again, this is not an issue on NT.

Anyone seen anything like this?

I am updating the RichEdit as follows:

push(@update,$line);
$Window->Editor->Text($Window->Editor->Text . join("", @update));

There is regex that determines when @update gets undef'd. I am doing it this
way because only some of this info gets written to a different window
("filter" window).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
