DisposDialog is an old name for DisposeDialog.


A dialog created by
  dPtr = fn GetNewDialog( ... 

or by these rarely-used methods
  dPtr = fn NewDialog( _nil, ....
  dPtr = fn NewColorDialog( _nil, ...

should be disposed of with
  DisposeDialog( dPtr )

It is technically incorrect to use CloseDialog for these dialogs, although no harm seems to result. CloseDialog is used in several examples on the Release 5 CD, which will therefore need updating (to use DisposeDialog) in OS X:

Palette animation
CTB routine_FB^3.INCL
Dialog With UserItems.BAS
