Yes, that's true. I have some expieriences with TV in OO-PAS, so I think
I'll try and get into the C++ Version.
I had a look at JPTUI, it looks pretty good either. As I'm not going to
write an editor <g> I think I'll have a look at it, perhaps it's better for
my purpos at the moment.

The other thing is... Portability... I think of porting my program to OS/2
and Win32 (both console mode) for it uses some int13 and other hardware
stuff intensively, which won't work using it on the Windows NT DOS
console...
But I haven't found a lib that supports all of these... :(
