I don't resort to the forum until after lots of experimenting and manual research, but I am stumped. My program (which worked beautifully 20 years ago using DOS) sends 62 different character strings to locations in a tree shape on the screen, using position() and printf().

Now using Euphoria 4.1.0 in Windows 10, my partial program runs with a brief flash of the screen, too quick to see what's happening. I tried adding key_code = wait_key to the end, but to no avail. I have three questions:

1. Is position() still an appropriate way to determine where the printf() output will be?

2. Why doesn't wait_key() cause the screen to wait for me to see the screen?

3. How can I prescribe the size of the screen that is used?

4. Is there also a way to prescribe a larger screen for the ed editor?
