Re: Wishlist (it's a must)

[Christoph Plattner]

I completely agree with you. I think the `cls()' for screen init (in
char_io.c)
is not a good idea. I see no problems to start the command line
interface anywhere,
not on the top.

Befure a menu is executed, a cls() is necessary, otherwise the menu is
"currupted".

With friendly regards
