Changing software behavior just to match the documentation could break existing code
But that code was already broken in the first place.
therefore we do that only when there's a real reason for it
There is: As Rakscha pointed out the currently implemented behaviour is totally inconsistent with the rest of the software.
Additionally the "_startup" check does not take into account the number of arguments of the function (does not make any sense to me. If it's a startup it shouldn't have any parameters!) This makes the whole thing even more dangerous.
#include <acknex.h>
void show_startup_text(TEXT* t)
{
if (t)
t->flags |= SHOW;
}
This small piece of code will cause your application to crash. Even worse on my machine the crash occurs randomly.
