- Does anyone else have the problem whereby the top status line disappears when
- the screen is scrolled. The status bar is reclaimed when the screen is cleared
- by the data on the status line is lost and whatever text happened to be there
- is kept from scrolling.
-
- Note, this happens on three different machines and the VIDEO selection in the
- STATIC file makes no difference. Also, this occurs with or without and ANSI
- driver.
-
- This is extremely annoying as I have no idea who is every online. My rumaging
- through the source code has turned up nothing other than it appears Tom is not
- trapping all the necessary DOS/BIOS calls required to keep the status line on
- the top of the screen. This problem make me feel like re-writing the DOS.C
- file from scratch using only Borland's CONIO functions....
-
- Help! Anyone?
