I pulled the version 2.3 LBR file and began working with it. I installed it on a Morrow system with no problems at all. On a Kaypro, however, I encountered a problem related to the exit selection on the main menu. After pondering it for awhile and playing with it, I surmised that what is happening is that the used to select the exit is being echoed to the screen (as are all the other menu options when they are selected), and, since leads off many of the Kaypro attribute sequences, the next several characters which are sent through the CONOUT routine are gobbled by the ROM code. So, I went into the installation program and thought "OK, I'll specify a dummy sequence for program exit (terminal reset) to pad the ." Sigh. No such luck. The Turbo install program won't buy a terminal reset sequence which begins with a printing character -- or so it seems. Not a terrible problem by any measure, but rather annoying. A printing character, perhaps, for the exit selection in version 2.4? Great program.
