I know. But they can be choosed from that range. This range matches CP437 pseudo-graphics area. > The problem with scrnmap on cut'ed text is solvable by having a > reverse scrnmap table.. Reverse table can be builded somewhere in load scrnmap ioctl handler. BTW, what about having text-mode mouse pointer (colored reverse f.e.)? It not makes any characters dead. It will be nice to allow cut&paste even without mouse (by keyboard) after pressing Scroll Lock. -- Andrey A. Chernov <ache@nagual.ru> http://www.nagual.ru/~ache/
