Hah! When I was in High School someone gave me a Turbo Pascal 6 book
(while I was taking a class that involved Turbo Pascal). I brought the
book to school, and everyone took turns reading the chapters on all of the
window functions. Before long everyones code had all sorts of Window
tricks, the instructor pretty much snapped because he couldn't read any of
it. Simple programs that should be a page and a half were 7 pages due to
all of the display functions. Those were the days.
