well dark it is aparently the output and how output is converted to
text by the dosbox system.
so if the way could be converted to a standard command prompt like in
standard dos with maybe the abilities of a windows console
application with the abilities of say windows command prompt then we
could use it that way.
However if we really decide to go that way then we may just as well
convert eamon to an audio game where you walk round with the arrow
keys and hit space on items to kill them and muck round.
that would be crap but oh well.
Frank said he may invest time in doing some audio eamon or something
after he is done with the current project.

Hi Tom.
To be honest I disagree on the dosbox issue. Eamon deluxe isn't the
only dos game out there, and dosbox is! what people are using.
the fixes usually involve graphics not text display, thus sapi would
be a workable alternative.
it wouldn't have the cross platform uses that is true, but it'd be
certainly better than having nothing at all and no method especially
given the amount of people who use windows and will continue to do
so in the uture who will want to play older 16 bit applications.
Beware the grue!
