I've got a >rather old demo disk, but all it shows is text mode. CXL is a text based windowing library. It has EMS, Mouse, String, Keyboard, Video and Windowing functions along with some misc equipment type functions. It's one of the few packages that I felt good enough to register. I haven't gotten around to upgrading to the most current version (5.5). It was originally written by Mike Smedley (I think that's right) and sold to someone in Pennsylvania. I received an announcement about a month ago. I don't have any of the information about the new package other that it is supposed to be completely rewritten in asm. Carl Schelin tcs@mailer.jhuapl.edu
