Terminal Requirements

INMEMO requires a CRT with XY cursor positioning for proper operation. In addition, the following features will enhance the operation:

• smart insert and delete line

• graphics character set

• smart box commands

• AM72-style color

• AM72-style save and restore area commands (or Tracker).

For best results, the terminal driver should conform to the AMOSL 1.3 standard and should support the TRMCHR Monitor Call. However, earlier terminal drivers will also work provided they contain the # of rows and columns in the terminal driver header. INMEMO will adjust itself to the current screen dimensions (up to 255 by 255), truncating the window size as necessary. Note that we also distribute the Tracker which emulates AM72-style save and restore area commands on nearly any terminal, allowing memos to be popped up and removed without losing the underlying screen display.
