Glenn,

I think I found a bug in this version of CSWING.
When you go to Filemanager, displayformat 1, you see:

A.TMP;1                                      0/0  []  (RWED,RWED,,)  
EDTINI.EDT;2                              1/9  [???]  (RWED,RWED,,)


The first file is owned by a UIC without a corresponding identifier,
while the second file is owned by a UIC which has an identifier.

This is handled in swing_28.c, procedure owner_name.
There is a call to idtoasc, followed by a check for the return status.
I think this check is not correct:
	status = sys$idtoasc(f->uic,
      	                   &namlen,
            	             DSCA1(nambuf),0,0,0);
	if((status & 1) != 1)
  
should probably be:

	status = sys$idtoasc(f->uic,
      	                   &namlen,
            	             DSCA1(nambuf),0,0,0);
	if((status & 1) == 1)   /* test "not equals" should be "equals"

After this change, the output shows:
A.TMP;1                           0/0  [00050,00777]  (RWED,RWED,,)  
EDTINI.EDT;2                      1/9  [VMS_ADMIN]    (RWED,RWED,,)

Good. Glad to hear you have it running. Turned out there were (among
other things)
at least 3 other places where the context variable was wrongly handled.
Lord
knows how many other latent bugs may still be there but this one seems
to run
pretty decently on the whole.

Glenn,

Thanks again.
It compiled and linked on VMS 7.3-1, without any compilation or linker
warning or info-message.
The executable runs on 7.3-1, 7.3, 7.2-1 and 7.1-2.

Kees Goet.
