The original code is proprietary to THINK. I have made a bunch of enhancements as well. It requires a modified stdio library which may be why THINK is not releasing it. There is a curses which is under evaluation by THINK I think :-). I do not know of the status of the evaluation. I have NO connection with THINK Technologies except as a satisfied user of Lightspeed C and Lightspeed Pascal. This is NOT an official Apple statement. ------------------------ Byron Han, Communications Tool ---------------------- Apple Computer, Inc. 20525 Mariani Ave, MS 27Y Cupertino, CA 95014 ATTnet:408-973-6450 applelink:HAN1 domain:han@apple.COM MacNET:HAN GENIE:BYRONHAN COMPUSERVE:72167,1664 UUCP:{sun,voder,nsc,decwrl}!apple!han -- ------------------------ Byron Han, Communications Tool ---------------------- Apple Computer, Inc. 20525 Mariani Ave, MS 27Y Cupertino, CA 95014 ATTnet:408-973-6450 applelink:HAN1 domain:han@apple.COM MacNET:HAN GENIE:BYRONHAN COMPUSERVE:72167,1664 UUCP:{sun,voder,nsc,decwrl}!apple!han
