A new project I've been busy with :-)

LOL DrV,

Well, From what I've seen, it's one of the main reasons (i have to say, I still have the codebase I had done (because yes, I did try to make one in FB first, for the record ;-).

If I go graphics, I loose the text cursor, if I go text, I loose PCOPY so I was stuck between the two

I'm not sure if you've tried to loop through a screen getting screen(X,y) and screen(x,y,1) and then with a loop print that back on the screen? on my system which isn't half bad (1.3 gHz, 1 gig of ram) you actually see each line or column character being drawn. To me that's too slow to be usable :-).

But hey, if I get PCOPY in text mode, sure i'd do it in FB. ChaOs has a con_lib he did (he posted about it on fb.net) it seems quite fast,but it's windows only. maybe you can start from there if you like the performances.
