Actually, you've mentioned previously the possibility of allocating memory on
the fly.  This seems like the best bet to me.

The first thing the program would run each time would be RUN TERMCAP("Init")
oops I mean RUN Termcap("Init",ADDR(storage))... .  Then each call would
also pass the same storage pointer.

The neat thing is, a program could actually talk to several different types of
terminals at once (!) by simply calling the Init routine with different storage
parms.

The other calls would be normal.. RUN Termcap("InsertLine",ADDR(storage)) and
so on.

BTW, it turns out that Basic/68K does pass the environment onto subprograms, so
one way to get env vars would be to fork a printenv process that was piped back
in for reading.
