   Does anyone out on the net know of a graphics windowing library (or
C, Pascal, Fortran routines) for the Z-100?  I recently purchased the
Ecosoft C compiler which has graphics routines for the Z-100 (ANSI
required), but the windowing routines are limited to PC compatables.  I
would like to build some programs which use the Z-100s graphics
capability (not thru ANSI) which will use pop-up (and pull-down)
windows, but don't have the expertise to build the graphics/window
routines myself.  I know such routines exist since there are several
pop-up style programs for the Z-100, but the source code seems to be
elusive at best.  Does the SIMTEL library contain any?  Is anyone who
has written windowing programs for the Z-100 willing to put the source
up on the library?  Since the Z-100 is losing ground to the 286/386
machines, I can't see why releasing such routines into the PD would
cause severe financial problems for the developer (unless the developer
would be willing to package such routines into a library and sell it).
Any ideas?  Any help?
