The latest version as of 1/17/86 was 1.15. You can get directly from
the authors at Hersey Micro Consulting, Inc. They have a bbs that
operates between 11pm and 8am ET (313-994-3946).
I've used FCONSOLE.DEV (aka FANSI.SYS) for a couple of days now, and my
only complaints with it are:
1. The price. They want $75 bucks for the complete manual. The
stuff you download for free DOES NOT contain the complete manual.
The chapter on advanced features (vt100 mode, 50 line screens, ...)
is intentionally left out.
2. There licensing agreement and all the garbage explaining it is
20+ pages. This isn't "freeware". (That means that this posting
may be considered somewhat commercial by some people. Tough. It
was already being discussed, and I have no connections with the
authors anyways)
