As a native speaker of a language which only has three tenses and no
grammatical gender, it's difficult to decide if the twelve tenses of
English, or the three genders of German are the more confusing. :P
(Probably still the latter, tho'... ;) )
Anyway, any interest to develop Free Vision further is very welcome one,
so we can move it from past tense to a future one. I still think text mode
UI for console and terminals still has a place, but sadly the current FV
implementation doesn't necessarily plays well on some Un*x terminals (it's
highly dependent on the font, and many other factors), also a mono mode is
sorely missing, which is a problem for both some modern and retro use
cases. And yeah, on the high-end, Unicode would be needed.
