I'm sorry this is off-topic, but I've scanned the Usenet
lists for words like Borland Turbo Vision for C++ without
joy.

I've written a non-trivial app using TV, and I would like
to add 'help' in the status line.  It seems as though it
can be done, but it's poorly doc'd and I've not found examples.

I'm also having trouble with palettes.  Simple stuff, using
a dialog box is ok.  But using windows with input lines
the colours are crazy, and my fudges round this are getting
more and more horrible.

Anyone out there who can give me a hand or point me at
someone?  I don't imagine I'll get much help from Borland,
they seem to have dropped TV after BC 3.1.
