Hello to all,

sorry for the theme, have some body the disk information of the Rick Spence's Clipper 5.2: Power Programmer's Guide book ?

I'm trying to develop a simple TUI software in Linux

It is a 5 1/4" floppy disk ... finding a drive to read it would be a challenge.

I have the book and the disk ( envelope never opened ).

Dear Marcelo,

For a TUI I suggest you to review this one (working on Linux too). Same look and feel as Borland's Turbo Vision.
