To make a program able to run in a PM Text Window, you have to do two things.

a:  Don't use any of the Vio calls which are not compatable with PM (VioSetFont,
   VioGetPhysBuf, VioGetState, etc)
b:  Create a .DEF file for the program, and include a minimum of

   NAME PROGRAMNAME   WINDOWCOMPAT

    When linking the program, give the name of this file on the 'Definitions    
file' prompt (or just after the libraries 'spot' in the command line).
