Wish listIt is good that you put the wishes here... but I doubt anyone is
going to re-enter them into the "official" web wishlist. Can you, Did you do
that??

In other words, even if they strike a chord of agreement in anyone who can
do something about them, they will likely be forgotten unless you add them
to the real wish list... and soon... I might add.

  I have a couple of wish items

  1.  A display only listbox() - like browse lookup
  2.  box() function to draw a box given (x,y:x,y)
  3.  single key trigger for listbox() - same as menus.
      If I use listbox(), right now, pressing the first
      element of a string will jump to that string.  It
      would be nice to have this behavior to optionally
      exit listbox() with a value of pressed key
  3a. @lk same as @bk but to denote value pressed while
      within listbox().
  4.  @mk same as @bk but for menu command.  Say I use
      menu and instead of using the typical method, I
      will check on @mk to identified chosen menu option.
      This should allow for a more dynamic programming
      environment
  5.  clsbox() function to clear a box area on screen

  Let me not ask for too much ... these are a good start.

  However, if pushing it is not offensive, it would be
  nice to have a way to save a screen snapshot to a
  variable and be able to recall it (DBASEII had something
  line this).

  Regards;
