OOPS and Foxbase

I am using Foxbase (not +) on my xenix system and also must 
display information to schools using apples.  There are two ways 
in which I attempt to get around the problem of screen 
emulation... first I make a lot of use of  ? for printing to 
screen rather than  @ say statements.  The second solution was 
to set up a termcap entry for the apple.  I have added the 
following entry to my termcap file, and I know that it works 
with some of the communications programs that do not support 
terminal emulation.

I am running a system for educators here in Saskatchewan and 
would be interested in discussing possibilities of interaction 
between teachers on your system an this one.  I have been 
talking with educators in New York and Montana about promoting 
some international activity discussing educational issues for 
K-12 teachers.  If you would be interested in this, please 
contact me either on the system or direct by voice.
