	On the contrary - although I would probably just use printf(). It's a
matter of making a GrafOff() call, doing the printf()'ing, possibly waiting
for a ReadChar(), and then doing GrafOn(). One of the other possibilities is
just printf()'ing, and then using one of the CDA's that lets you look at the
text screen.

	Btw, the text tools aren't really very supported anymore, but they're
fine for debugging type stuff, as all of your debug code should be stripped out
of the production code...

I'm now working at SoftDisk, Inc. Of course, what I say is what I say, and not
what they say... I will be calling this account for awhile & dealing with mail
here, but I won't be calling nearly as frequently as I used to.
