I have the manuals for Turbo Vision in storage.  I paid for them along 
with my Borland C++ 3.1 compiler set.
the manuals are not included in any files that I know of.

I noticed the Hello.cc example application was missing from turbo 
vision, and it was the most interesting. maybe I overlooked it.

also, every example compiles with the link error that the linker could 
not find -lrhtv
rhtv.* does not exist.

when I try to make the maintain.mak in the makes directory in order to 
make rhtv, I get the error "unknown include dir: 
c:/djgpp/v2gnu/lib/gcc/djgpp/4.23/include/limits.h"
a file as a directory?
the directory exists.

doesn't work out of the box.  I also noticed some strange g: paths for 
libraries I couldn't resolve with rhide.env and then I am told to "edit" 
with no instructions.  I don't even quite know how to read what I am 
looking at.  Please make it simple.  I can only juggle so many things in 
my head at once.

I can tell nobody actually tried to compile the turbo vision examples - 
because they compile with so many errors.  mostly deprecation warnings 
about string constants being used for char * which are turned into 
errors.  In fact, this problem is throughout the codebase.
my only solution is const_cast<char*>().
I am willing to send you my edits to save you time.  I just don't know 
if they work yet because I have no rhtv.

I guess I won't be using turbo vision for a while yet.
