Provides several utilities written on top of the Environment Window_IO
interface. Facilities include:

    - Basic utilities: provides cursor positioning, image operations,
         user-input prompting, and iteration over all lines in a window
         image
    - Forms package: provides an interface for defining form entries
         and for parsing user responses. It allows a client program to
         display a form and to wait for the user to edit the form entries.
         When the user indicates that the form is complete, the form is
         parsed and an iterator of responses is provided to the client
         program.
    - Key definitions: offers a template for establishing named terminal
         keys so that tools can interpret raw keyboard input.
    - Terminal fonts: defines useful terminal fonts for display including
         dim, bold, reverse video, and blinking.
    - Electric menu: provides interfaces to define menu items, to display
         a complete menu, and to request user selection. Selection is
         available by arrow keys or by the first letter of the item.
    - Multiple selection menu: provides interfaces to define menu items,
         to display a menu, and to request user selection. Interfaces are
         also available for defining operations which manipulate items in
         the list. The user may select multiple items in the menu and
         specify an operation that applies to all selected items.
    - Display management: manages display scrolling for images of large
         user-defined objects.
    - Split windows: defines two window subsections allowing asynchronous
         writes to either window. The program manages independent scrolling
         of each window subsections.
    - Boxes and lines: provides an interface for drawing labelled boxes
         and lines within a window image.
