Automatic GUI runtime support

As in past versions of ACUCOBOL-GT, certain GUI features are provided automatically by the runtime. To take advantage of these features, you don't have to change your COBOL code, and you don't have to recompile your program. You simply use the object code generated with your ACUCOBOL-GT compiler, and execute it with a runtime for Windows or Windows NT. When you do this your program automatically gains:

• a native, moveable, main application window.
• basic mouse support. Users can point and click to move the cursor, and can highlight a string of characters and replace the string by typing a new one.
• customizable colors, titles, window sizes, window placement, and program icons (tailored with runtime configuration variables).
• access to the system's print spooler, so that several files may be queued for printing.
• the ability to run more than one application at the same time.
