Re: window subfile

Booth,

Joe put you on the right track, but I would like to expand a little as to the
way we have locatable windows.

First we return the cursor location when someone wants a popup and use that as
parameters to the window program itself.  Within the window program,
unfortunately we have the window number of rows and columns hardcoded, and check
the incoming parameters against the window size to make sure that it is within
the 24x80 viewable area and adjust accordingly.

This way, if a change is made in pgmA display location the popup will
automagically relocate itself.
