Steven,
I did not claim the routine was good :) , just that it seemed to be an example
of a script that took input from the keyboard to achieve a goal. That seemed to
be what the OP wanted.
Now regards your windows.s script, it does not do the same thing that my script
does. Your script permits the user to chose the type of window desired. My
script permits the user to open as many 80-column text windows as desired and
memory permits, each with a different boarder color. Those are two different
objectives.
Do you want me to send you the source code for shellsub and shellhex?
Robert
