G'day Peter

 AM>>  cwrite.library?  That sounds familiar, but I can't put my finger on
 AM>> it.

 PD> Yes, it's rather old.  I should have been using it earlier.  It claims
 PD> to be faster than console.device, I'm not too sure about that.  But it
 PD> handles a heap more ANSI codes :-)

  What new sorts of ANSI codes?  Screen positioning?

 AM>>  Don't forget to post an announcement to attract all us leeches to
 AM>> the updates!  ;]

 PD> Yes, and I'll have to get someone to post it on to aminet for me.
 PD> Hmm, one good reason to enrol part-time at uni again next year I
 PD> think.... Even if I withdraw they still leave your account on the VAX
 PD> open :-)

  Now, if only I could get them to extend the same priveleges to an
ex-student... :)

 PD> Yes, anything I write in GFA WILL be KS 1.2 compatible.  I still only
 PD> use a tiny fraction of the available calls in V34.0, no need at all to
 PD> use the v37+ libs :-)

  That's what I wanted to hear.

 PD> Provided you give me arp.library, though.  It's amazing how many arp
 PD> library functions were put into WB2.0.  They certainly did a great job
 PD> with it, all those years ago.

  Heheheh.  I just had to check libs: myself to see if I still had it! So
many damned libs in there I've lost track of 'em.  [sigh]
