Re: Mixing 4GL with Curses Screen Handling

Just for completeness - you could also try Aubit4GL ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/aubit4gl/) We *do* use normal ncurses , and because its open source - you're free to hack around internally to make it do what you want anyway.. Plus - its free (as in beer) too. Finally - the new GUI is just about to be released for a full beta - includes report generation, charting and all the normal "gui" bits : http://www.ventas.de/a4gl/vdc-the-new-gui http://www.ventas.de/a4gl/vdc-demo On 27 March 2012 14:47, Art Kagel <art.kagel@gmail.com> wrote: > Have you looked at porting your 4GL app to Querix Lycia or 4Js Genero? > This will give your users the full GUI/mouse experience almost immediately > with very little work and allow you to improve the appearance and features > going forward. > > Art > > Art S.
