ROSEWOOD QUICKBASIC STUFF v 1 consists of two programs which can be
 incorporated into programs written in QuickBasic 4.xx or QBasic which
 is supplied with MS DOS 5 and 6. Libraries or commands such as
 CALL INTERRUPT not used in QBasic are not needed with this code.

 There are two distinct parts of the program:

   The first is an input editor which will replace the commands "INPUT",
 "LINE INPUT", etc. with an input routine written with INKEY$ as the input.
 INKEY$ allows much nicer inputting, especially if you have several inputs
 to process in succession. This editor can be set up to accept various types
 of input and to block other types. This will greatly reduce the amount of
 error checking which is associated with the usual input functions.
   Some parts of this program may look ancient with its IF..ENDs and GOTOs.
 However, I like to have the ability to cascade through the editor. See
 how scan% = 8 becomes scan% = 83 in the backspace command area. The program
 could be written using only DO..LOOP, SELECT CASE etc. but I doubt that it
 would make the program work better. It would be prettier though.
 The editor is very loosely based on a program from the magazine,
 PC RESOURCES, October 1987, pg. 61

   The second part of the code is a simple window program. Windows of any
 size or colour, with or without a border, can be placed anywhere on the
 screen with text justified left, centre and right, and then wiped off so
 that the original screen below is restored. The speed in drawing and
 erasing these windows is not as great as windows using registers and
 CALL ABSOLUTE, but it is adequate for most purposes.
