Hi Alex
>And CRT32.pas in JCL library ( http://jcl.sourceforge.net/daily/ )
>(good example ... in Pascal :-).
while I usually don't care if examples are in Pascal or C (after all,
for this kind of question the pure know-how is what matters most), I
am by now fine with the console oriented functions you pointed me to.

One thing irks me a bit, though: Under certain circumstances I would
like to turn the cursor off - but the logical candidate (SetCursor)
didn't achieve the proper result.
Maybe you got another idea?
Best regards
Helmut Giese
