1. text_gui .4
David Cunny,
I like the text_gui very much from what I have
seen so far. One thing I did notice was that under
the HELP Commands, the arrow keys scroll you
through the message, but the scroll bar on the
edge is not operable. This may or may not be
intentional.

P. S. To ALL who have contibuted to this list, I
find the code to be very useful, I enjoyed the
SNAKERS and TWINS games very much. Again
Thanks to ALL........

the "help" list is a dummy routine. i'll replace it with a real list some
time this weekend.
you may also have noticed that using the mouse to scroll in the MLE causes
text to be selected. page up/page down also don't clear the selected text.
all these are fixed in the (unreleased) .4d version. i'll probably wait until
monday until i post it, because (1) tomorrow looks like it'll be very busy, and
(2) i hope to have the editor "complete" (except for split windows) by then.
thanks for the bug report.

sure. i'm not really getting much feedback on if people hate/despise the
way the toolkit is put together, so I'm assuming that it's ok. (hint, hint).
based on my experience in trying to code the editor using it, i've had to
add quite a number of features. for example, you in 4.d you can add and
remove list items much more easily. i suspect that i'll need something
similar for the menus so you can dynamically build them.
my guess is, once people actually start trying to code apps using it, my
work will *really* be starting.

re: good work. thanks.
re: dotted lines. i stole that from someone else. i find that putting dashes
across the page before every function and procedure makes it easy to scroll
through the file and find what i'm looking for. this is especially true at
two in the morning, when i can't remember the /name/ of the routine - heck,
at that time, i'm lucky to remember my own name.
