Hi John,

If you don't want QWERTY, then just use the original version.  Mine is only
different in being QWERTY input.  For myself, I find the opposite, my
fingers are so trained that I find the original version very awkward and the
QWERTY version is like a sigh of relief.  The only issue that I still have
with the Windows version is that occasionally, on pressing the Alt key, the
OS shifts the focus from colorForth to it's window.

Cheers,
Mark

Thanks for your work.  Personally I find
QWERTY colorforth's unusable. That's
because some of the editing keys don't
work right when the keyboard is no
longer remapping properly.  The first
think I always do with the Roman Pavlyuk's
version of ColorForth is to turn on 
ScrollLock so that I get the Dvorvak 
keyboard back.  How is that done with
your ColorForth?

Regards,

John M. Drake
