   I know there's a Turbo Vision group, but it seems dedicated to the C   
   version, and that group seems less-frequently monitored than this   
   one.  I ask because I'm about to actually write my first TV   
   application, and wondering if I should even consider trying to ask for   
   help here.  I have gone through the 12-section tutorial in the BP 7 TV   
   manual, including typing all the source myself, so I have a basic idea   
   of how to proceed.  I think my questions will fall more along the   
   lines of "What is the 'Turbo Vision' way to perform this application   
   function?".   
      
   Along those lines, here's my first question:  If everything in the TV   
   application framework is event-based, doesn't that mean the main event   
   handler could get extremely large, like several hundreds of lines   
   long, with a hundred or more event handlers?  And is that best   
   practice, to put every event handler in a single loop, even for events   
   that are only generated/handled by modal dialogs? (by "modal" I   
   believe it means "grabbing focus until closed")   
      
   Is there source code for any large TV programs (applications, not   
   libraries or utilities) out in the wild that I could study?  Most of   
   what I poked through in Garbo and SWAG looked like library units and   
   dialog designers, not actual finished TV programs.
