Subject: Will the REAL Pause Bug please stand up!
You who have been advocating the use of the Pause Bug Fix to stop JSW crashing when
you pause it have got it all wrong! It's actually the Pause Bug Fix that *causes* JSW to
crash when you pause it!
I have written up the whole sordid story at my website
[http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~broada/spectrum/willy/bugs.html target=new>http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~broada/spectrum/willy/bugs.html> ], which includes explanations of, and cures for:
- The Pause Bug Fix;
- The
Block Graphics Bug;
- The Attic Bug;
- A bizarre Guardian Class Table aberration I
encountered while writing Goodnite Luddite.
This document should certainly have a link in
the troubleshooting section of the JSW FAQ!

imitating
So won't the real Pause Bug please stand up, please stand up, please stand up
