Help!
Here's the first release beta version of my "swears" curses-look-alike lib
for the pc environment. BUT I need help. This package is far from complete,
so why don't you try it with your Quick C compiler, and e-mail me some
suggestions...
Thanks!

/**************************************************************************\
* Swears *
* by Professor Von Ignatius Pseudo, E.K.C.P. *
* *
* Swears is a C add-on library giving you various windowing and utility *
* functions provided in unix curses. There's no termcap, but there IS *
* direct video screen writes with TRUE refresh functions! Use at your *
* own risk... *
* *
* This implementation of Swears is for the Microsoft Quick C language on *
* the IBM PC compatibles, based on the unix curses package. You'll need *
* the two files: SWEARS.H and SWEARS.LIB (renamed from SWEARS_x.LIB) and *
* these two files may be renamed to CURSES.H and CURSES.LIB if you like. *
* As usual, if you are having any problems, you might try a vacation... *
* *
* Swears is TOTALLY, COMPLETELY, ENTIRELY free! You may use the Swears *
* library to create any program, either free or for sale, without paying *
* any royalty fees. You don't even have to display any sort of Swears *
* logo, copyright or info about Swears in your program, at all. Swears *
* is IdeaRighted (I) 1990 by ACME F.S.P.F. Please see attached document. *
* *
* Yes, this was another TEAM ATTACK project... *
* "I tried to get the team to work on it, but they attacked me !?!" *

NAME

swears - screen functions to emulate the unix curses library.

SYNTAX

#include

This will automatically include the stdio.h header file.

DESCRIPTION

This version of curses for the pc is based upon a direct
screen write algorithm. No termcap is used, just arrays and
video memory writes. The original screen is saved, an image
of the screen is built in memory and that memory is written
to the screen each time the REFRESH() function is called.
The INITSCR() function MUST be used before any other of the
functions, and you MUST end with ENDWIN() before exiting.
