I recently snagged the sources to crisp and got it working at least
functionally.  *Kudos to Paul Fox!*  I have two basic problems that I'd
quickly like to put to rest, but one of them is generically in TFM so I
tread lightly there.  The other seemed notably absent. 

I have an Intel 386 with EGA color running Microport Unix.  The borders
are hokey ansi characters for boxing off the edges and I'm looking for
the genuine box character set to delimit the screen.  This is not
casting aspersions on Crisp or the author.  I'm sure the aspersions
belong to me. :-)  I've seen Brief on a DOS VGA 386 system with gobs of
color windows and the whole bit, but this version of Crisp comes up
monochrome. 

What am I doing wrong _or_ is hacking the only way out?

The keyboard keyset which the docs stated must be played with aren't
even close on my configuration.  I'm wondering if anyone has worked out
the problems for a similar configuration?

Please reply by mail and I will summarize as appropriate for others
seeking the same info. 

Any help will greatly appreciated!
