This one is for those of you who use windows (I4GL windows, not MS windows). Wouldn't it be nice to extend the OPTIONS keyword to accept the likes of: MENU LINE OFF PROMPT LINE OFF etc so that if you wanted to display a simple form you could do so in such a way that the displayed form looked like: +---------------------------------+ | SOME INPUT THING [ ] | +---------------------------------+ rather than: +---------------------------------+ | | | | | SOME INPUT THING [ ] | | | +---------------------------------+ Errors appear on the last screen line so that should be a problem. A run-time error should result if a COMMENT, PROMPT or MESSAGE line is encountered whilst such a window was the current window. | I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way -- Jessica Rabbit | |------------------------------------------------------------| | Stuart Hemming | shemminga@cix.compulink.co.uk | | Tudor Labels Ltd | uunet!cix.compulink.co.uk!shemminga | | Roman Bank Bourne | Tel : (+44) 778 426444 | | Lincs PE10 9LQ.
