Hi folks, i`m writing an old school text adventure,I written a subroutine to allow input through the keyboard and also to build up a string to display location exits and items, the problem is when I send this to the textwindow box the first bit is on the screen but you can`t see the rest, is there a way to get it to warp
over multiply lines one below the other ?

cheers
