Term::Screen is a very simple screen positioning module that should work wherever Term::Cap does. It is set up for Unix using stty's but these dependences are isolated by evals in the new constructor. Thus you may create a child module implementing Screen with MS-DOS, ioctl, or other means to get raw and unblocked input. This is not a replacement for Curses -- it has no memory. This was written so that it could be easily changed to fit nasty systems, and to be available first thing.
