I am looking for shareware OR low cost screen painter/screen manager
(text mode only) that will run in color under Sco Xenix 386.
(like those ususally found in the DOS world!!)

a) Lotus style menus, 
b) Pop-up menus,
c) Limited windows
d) Pull-down menus

and then I ported it to SCO Xenix 386.
Alas, whenever I run it on a VGA color monitor, THE SCREEN IS FILLED WITH SNOW!!
I am NOT using color, but it is based on terminfo (not curses)
How can I get round this problem.


I noticed that the Informix/SQL menu which also uses Lotus style menus, does
not have this problem!!


Any pointers will be very much appreciated!!


One LAST question.  Can you do memory-mapped color I/O in SCO Xenix??

Email will be appreciated!

Thanx
