Hi, you cannot use SCREEN=... to select N lines. It only selects a certain font. For VGA, default is 8x16 to give 80x25 screen, so if you select 8x14 or 8x8 font, you end up having 80x28 or 80x50 screen respectively. If your default font is 9x16 instead of 8x16, fine. Common. Just replace all "8x"

OOPS! My fault, I wanted to say: cannot generate 16-bit code! Of course, it's a 32-bit compiler. A pitty that support stopped there... I am just wondering if I compile for DOS with threading and run my app, renamed to KRNL386.EXE, under Windows95... :) ROFL

Hi, Personally I prefer the single-executable solution, rather than the creation of several executables that may take many room in your disk. Precisely I have recently finished debugging the new KEYB, that will support single "KEYBOARD.SYS"-like data files, instead of multiple KL files. So it'
