I only remember Turbo Vision from olde DOS days and I also remember that
it produced the fattest binaries (statically linked) that I've seen from
a DOS library.  A small hello-world proggy and you could watch it include
> 100K lines and dumping a binary that was over 250K in size.  I don't
expect it too be much smaller in the Unix world, you still have to keep
the TV library around (not very good for boot disks), although I haven't
looked at the Unix implementation of TV so far (I detest it).
