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.

Subject: Wish list
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;
