BIGLTR.ZIP Yes 20166 6/4/1989
BigLtr 1.0 duplicates each keystroke you make
in a large font in a horizontally scrolling
line across the bottom of the screen. This
should be a real boon for people with
impaired vision. The display can be toggled
off and on without leaving your program.
Since BigLtr takes up several lines at the
bottom of the screen for displaying text, it
will work only with programs that do not use
those lines. The on-disk documentation tells
how to patch WordStar 3.3 and 4.0 and
WordPerfect 5.0 so that they will not use
those lines. The default for BigLtr causes
the display to lag what is being typed by a
letter, which we found to be confusing when
testing it. The documentation tells you how
to change to an "immediate" display. res:5k

spreadsheet program. Bugs: When we selected a
non-blinking block cusor, it left a "trail"
in column one when doing a DIR in DOS. When
we toggled back to what was supposed to be
the "normal" system cursor, we instead got a
cursor at the "top" of the line. (Rosetta
