Thanks! When I get a spare moment, I'll try to figure out how to make it
shell, so you can run programs from within the editor.

No hurry - I can alt-Fkey to a new terminal for that.
There's one glitch that could use some work - when you have an error in
your program, and run it from the editor, the screen doesn't redraw
completely. Usually the menu is missing. It comes back when you hit
an alt-key, however.

Actually, I didn't think you could run programs from the editor yet. The
"Show User Screen" option won't work any more, either. That's because I
can't physically read the screen and store it for redisplay.

Thanks. I'm aware of the problem. This coming week looks hectic, so it may
be a while before I can post any updates.

I didn't know it wouldn't work, so it works fine for me :)
In order to see your output, you need a wait_key() somewhere
before the program ends, of course, to avoid going right back
into the editor.

That may be more difficult, maybe ee could run it on another terminal?
That way, you'd have the scrollback capability as well.

A minor thing that anyone can change for themselves,
but should be included in the next version of EE/L:
The program looks for library.doc and refman.doc in the
../DOC/.. directory, and Rob's program installs these in the
../doc/.. directory.
