Actually no, I want to EXTEND python using the lower levels of S-lang
screen modules.

My Modules are written in C and are a frame work for building pull-
down menus and data entry screens.

Very nice for writing business applications. Think along the lines of
FoxPro and/or the
"Screen" section in Cobol and you have a pretty good idea of what i
have done.
