  It does in OS/2 - I haven't checked it in Win32 yet.

  TSE can be run as either full-screen or windowed.  I for one am
  uncomfortable with any windowed app, especially w/p or text
  editor, that can't give me "console characters" on a full
  screen.  I was legally blind for several years and although I
  have half my eyesight back, windowed presentations give me eye
  strain.  And there's a  philoxophical point - my feeling is
  that text documents should be read and composed in a text mode.

  To each his own......I guess that I never learnedto whistle and
  chew gum at the same time.
