Ah. *Those* things. I'd driven the joys of dealing with ANSI
terminals from my memory.

The short answer is: no, there's not facility in XForms of which I
know to emulate this.

You could probably do it in a Free object without too much effort. I
managed to cobble up a reasonable facsimile of an HTML interpreter and
display tool in a Free object in about four or five days. I'd guess
that this would be much more straightforward.
