BIGT.ZIP is available in file area 15 (new uploads) of BLINKLINK.  I 
expect that it will find its way to area 3 shortly.  The file is about 
4 k bytes as a zip so a call to 412-766-0732 should not be very 
expensive.  I imagine that your sysop could get this via a file request 
as well.  I will leave further details on that to Mr. W.  
I am helping the University of Pittsburgh make its computer facilities 
accessible and think your program is quite good and your making it 
available at an affordable price quite wonderful!  We welcome your 
participation in this echo.  
BIG T provides a 10 character window with the video cursor placed at 
the center.  There is only a single (large) size for the displayed 
letters.  This window can be moved around the screen and will 
immediately return to the active cursor when a key is pressed.  It 
works very well with WorPerfect and Qwerty.  It works with color 
screens, but "eats" the color attributes of areas that have been 
reviewed.  In the case of QWERTY, this leaves black and white strips on 
the normal blue background.  Presssing page down in WORDPERFECT seems 
to recolor the screen.  
  
Certainly both this program and MAGHERC have nice features.  What other 
programs have you written or do you plan to write?  
Again let me thank you for your participation here and especially on 
behalf of the dozen or so people to whom I have demonstrated MAGHERC.

[Note from Bill McGarry: BIGT is available on my BBS as well
 1-203-337-1607 and will shortly be sent up to the SIMTEL
 archives.]
