I have, to the best of my abilities, examined all that conio has to offer.
I did not see anything that would allow me to present a format and have the
user fill it.  There was "cgets" which it says will "Get a string from the
console.  This will take advantage of any command-line editing TSRs".

Is it possible that I'd have to do this by retrieving one character at a
time and appropriately updating the screen so it looks like the user is
filling in a format?

Thanks In Advance
