   Microsoft Windows programs. Most programs developed with VB/DOS are character-
   mode applications that look essentially like VB/DOS itself, in that they
   can have windows, menus, mouse-support, etc.

The old compilers were character-based. Are the windows, menus etc especially
created for graphics screens and can the windows be moved around ?
