I know I saw a flurry of messages during the summer about the
enhanced console program FANSI-Console. I was interested at the
time, but too busy to let myself get distracted. I should have
kept all that traffic, but didn't (see, it does so pay to be a
pack-rat! :-). Anyhow, recently I got Fansi-Console version 1.14
(12/27/85) from a local bulletin board, but when I un-arced the
file, it had only FCONSOLE.DEV and FCONSOLE.DOC (a *huge*
document, BTW!) in it. There are, according to the document,
heaps of other files on the distribution diskette. The local
bulletin boards don't seem to have these other files. 
   As I'm running a Zenith Z-158 (XT clone), I'd like to give
the program a good workout before I pop for it and register.
Some of the missing files are probably not that germaine to
my own uses (I don't use WordStar, for example), but some of
them *are*. 
   Kind souls might e-mail me suggestions (or the files!),
and those who happen to have shaken the thing down on a Z-158
(supposedly fairly compatible) might share their experiences.
If there's enough interest (don't imagine there is, though),
I'll summarize to the net. Lastly, in the intervening 10
months since 1.14, there may well be later versions. All useful
information gratefully appreciated in advance... Yoska
