To subscribers of the xforms list from Tristan <tristan@creative.net> :

I can reproduce the following bugs under Linux
and Solaris.

1) When fl_show_alert() is called several times with different
parameters and the alert windows was not closed by the
user between each call, then the alert windows gets
garbled (the text seems to be a supperposition of the
strings of the previous calls.

Forcing exposure by moving something over the alert
windows restores the proper display. So I suppose that
if I could programmatically "hide" the alert before
calling fl_show_alert(), it would solve the problem.
How do you hide the alert window ? (I couldn't find
fl_hide_alert() in the manual).

2) If you move something above an alert window,
the small <!> logo does not get redrawn properly
each time. Sometimes I get just an empty yellow
lozange.
