Scott,
since that program only works with text in a window, it'll be just fine
for what I need it for. I admit, it's an esoteric little kind of
application.

That's what's bothering me. We're talking about xTalk here, and I think C
shouldn't be something to borrow terminology from. What do users actually
call these terminal/console windows in real life?
