4762.0. "turning off amigados requesters" by CRBOSS::QUIRICI () Thu May 23 1991 13:28

    hi,
    
    i don't know if this has been covered before, but at least not
    recently:
    
    my program uses amigados to open/load files;
    i'd like to turn off the amigados requesters, like the error
    requesters, so that my program handles all dos errors. otherwise,
    the requesters screw up my screen - even when i select 'cancel', i
    don't get my custom window back.
    
    i tried the technique mentioned in an appendix to the amigados manual,
    where you use DeviceProc to find the process that handles a given
    device, so you can set those fields to -1: the windowptr, and the
    handlercode (or something). doesn't seem to work. suppose from within
    my program i try to access dz1: (by mistake); what process handles
    this? if i try to DeviceProc dz1:, i get that amigados requester
    telling me to mount dz1. catch22, right? i want to turn off ALL
    amigados requesters. how do i do it?
