What are the DLG syntax differences between BBC4W and BBCSDL?
Are Dialogue Fuctions for BBCSDL listed somewhere?

Re: Syntax Differences Dialogue Functions
Hi Albert(?),
I'm not ignoring you, but I don't have a lot of info to offer, and I was hoping someone else with a better knowledge of BBCSL would pitch in!
I think the simple answer is "no, there isn't a guide". I think Richard is hoping for a bit more user involvement in writing the support documentation for BBCSDL!
Perhaps more usefully, you could look at the code of the example program "dlgdemo.bbc" in the examples/general folder, which shows how to set up the dialogue and use a range of controls.
If you load the library itself into the IDE, and choose "list FN/PROCS" from the Utilities menu, you can get a list of all the functions. Clicking them will take you to the relevant section of code, so you can see what parameters are required. It's a very big list, but I think quite a number are "internal" ones used by the "main" routines!
If anyone wants to contribute some documentation (either as a free-standing document, and annotated program, or a more-heavily annotated version of the library), I dare say a number of people would be very grateful!
Best wishes,
D
