Turbo Vision (shortly TVision) is a TUI (Text User Interface) that implements the well known CUA widgets. With TVision you can create an intuitive text mode application, intuitive means it will have CUA like interface (check boxes, radio buttons, push buttons, input lines, pull-down menues, status bars, etc.). TVision was developed by Borland in 1992 as a tool for Borland TurboC and TurboPascal compilers. Around 1997 Borland put the sources in ftp site. Robert Höhne ported it to the djgpp toolkit to develope an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) similar to the Borland's BC++ 3.1 Sergio Sigala made a port to Linux and FreeBSD with "100% of compatibility with the old version" as goal. The v0.8 of this port can be found in Sunsite. Screenshot of Turbo Vision running on QNX (+Photon). It was taked by Mike Gorchak who is working on the QNX port. In the SETEdit site you'll find screenshots of a Turbo Vision application running as a native X application. They are from Linux and Solaris.
