Well, parameters are going to be a sticky (no pun on gooey intemnded) issue..
Maybe have a kernel call to get paramenters, as opposed to the CP/Mish PSP idea.

My point was that before a method would be loaded, it could be checked

I have a CGA, and I have used a VT52. *shuuder* I now do most of my
