In the spirit of not reinventing the wheel, I'm looking for public domain C source on which to base a set of generic editing routines for entering fields of data of different types: string, multiple-row text, integer, float, choice of scalar values (i.e. Yes/No), etc. The routines would need to be as portable as possible and would presumably be curses based. The string/text fields would allow modification of existing text and choice of insert/overtype modes. The numeric and scalar fields would check for entry of legal values (i.e. digits and decimal point) with each key stroke (as opposed to verifying legality after pressing <RETURN>). Any recommendations for code that implements these kind of routines well and is available via anonymous ftp? Thanks. -- ----- Don Thomson ----- MACC, 1210 W.
