THIS IS VTRM
============

VTRM is a terminal control package, with two implementations: one for Unix
(only well-tested on 4.2/4.3 BSD, but supposedly running under System 5
as well, as long as there is a termcap database), and one for MS-DOS, to
be compiled with the Microsoft C compiler (tested only with version 3.0).
This is a "curses replacement", which does not mean it is a curses
reimplementation: the interface is totally different, only the purpose
is more or less the same: to shield an application program from the
nitty-gritty detail of cursor navigation, inverse video, scrolling, etc.
There are also a few routines for CBREAK-mode input.

UNPACKING NOTES

The shars yield six files:
	README		(this file)
	pag.c		(a trivial application using the package)
	vtrmdoc.ms	(an attempt at documentation)
	trm.h		(common header file)
	ptrm.c		(MS-DOS version)
	vtrm.c_1
	vtrm.c_2
The latter two should be pasted together to get a file named vtrm.c:
	cat vtrm.c_[12] >vtrm.c
