Re: [open-cobol-list] Improvement to screen handling.

[Patrick]

Hi Vincent

I have little free time and what I have, often ends up in abandoned 
projects so this isn't a promise but I am thinking about creating a fork 
that will have Tk instead of ncurses.

I have ordered 3 books on the current Tcl/Tk C API and I have been 
reading books on Bison/Yacc, Autotools and Ncurses. I have all the open 
Cobol source code printed and I have been reading through it whenever I 
can and it's starting to make sense.

Hopefully I will have something to show in a few months.
