Hi Everyone

I think I am near a solution. I think this can be done by reading the cursor position.

I think I might try my hand at creating a direct-to-ncurses cobol library for some little things that are not yet built into OC.

Sorry for the noise

So I am making progress with the screen section but still mixed up about
something I need for my TUI.

I would like to simulate the same sort of navigation the lynx screen
based browser uses for an offline application.

There seems to be a cursor just before a word and that word is
highlighted in another colour to show it as an active link. Typing enter
will take the user to that page. If I type a letter or a number instead,
it does not show as input.

What is happening here? Could I create several screens and then use this
navigation strategy ?

Thanks for reading-Patrick
