Is that possibly a newer version of DynaStar that uses the termset file? If 
so, I'd love to get a copy. The only versions I can remember use a gotoxy 
module, but my mind isn't quite what it used to be. There's quite a 
collection on http://os9usergroup.com/fufu_downloads.htm, including DynaStar 
2.3 and what appears to be the source code on dynas23.dsk.
