Jens,
I know there are some people that would like to make KIX into a full fledged programming language while others say "keep it simple", yet you make a good point. The following would probably be useful, perhaps some already exist (I'm no expert):A function to set the cursor position
A macro to get the cursor position
A function to scrape the screen (get character at position x,y)
The ability to control scrolling (scroll-lock)
Then again, the ability to do some of this on a GUI MessageBox() would be cool as well.
I haven't done any of that sort of coding since the late 80's but my memory's starting to trickle back in fragments.
