Summary: 

I've written a little library of "crash-proof" datum-entry routines
which I might be persuaded to share.  The routines are things like

	int get_int(default, field_size);
	void get_string(string, field_size, boolean_null_ok);
	float get_float(default, field_size, fractional_part_size);

and so on.  Datum entry is supervised and can be made unescapable.
I have two versions - one which is curses-compatible and another
which talks to termcap itself.  Both are tested only for 4.2bsd.

Let me know if you would like a copy.  If requests reach a critical
mass I will post it to net.sources.  Please allow 6 weeks for delivery.
