I am interested in learning about any standards activities in the
area of character user interfaces.  The standards may be at any
level, such as the lower-level termcap and terminfo capabilities,
or a higher-level that deals with menus and forms and the like
(I have heard a little about something called FIMS, a Forms
Interface Management System, but not much; my source said that
P1003.2 was possibly considering it for the future.)

Thanks.
