But that's not important right now. Lines: 22 Category 1, Topic 7 Message 93 Thu Jun 13, 1991 B.SUTTON1 [Brian] at 19:01 EDT I've just started using Baden's F83s and am in the process of converting my cp/m accounting package over to my new 386. I grabbed F83s because of the separated heads allowing me more space for the dictionary. I'm hoping to eliminate some of the overlays I presently must use (about 20). I've seen numerous references expounding the virtues of F-PC here. Is this something I should take a hard look at? I mean, does it allow a LARGE dictionary space, or would I wind up cutting out a lot of the extra features in order to fit my programming in? I've already coded in things like color and mouse support to my F83s (not knowing if it was already done somewhere else). What do y'all think? ----- This message came from GEnie via willett.
