312.0. "Where is my cursor?" by ECC::JAERVINEN (impersonal name) Mon Feb 09 1987 03:10

    I tried writing a sort of a simple (but special purpose) terminal
    emulator in Basic past weekend.
    
    The program basically checks the serial interface and keyboard
    with LOC(n) and uses INPUT$ to get a character.
    
    It works perfect (the speed is only 1200 baud) but I have no
    cursor... it seems to disappear if you do an INKEY$ or
    INPUT$ (it is there if you do a plain INPUT).
    
    Is there any cure?
    
    (Eventually I will do all this in a real language, but I don't have
    any compilers yet and am prototyping in Basic [yeecchh]).
