I want to move beyond my TurboPascal program in DOS. Can I keep my character based menu (very fast, compact, and efficient with screen space) for the interface, and open a graphics window for the data graphing? KDE with Qt are daunting, while Curses is appealing.
You can use curses (directly if you write an interface, or via CRT) for the character based menu, of course. Usually, graphics windows can be used independent of curses windows, but I haven't tried it myself. For a simple graphics unit, you might want to look at GRX, but if you prefer another library, you can try this just as well. I'd expect to general problems.
