FT_XBOX()
 Display a self-sizing message box and message

 Syntax

      FT_XBOX( [ <cJustType> ], [ <cRetWait> ], [ <cBorType> ],   ;
               [ <cBorColor> ], [ <cBoxColor> ], [ <nStartRow> ], ;
               [ <nStartCol> ], <cLine1>,  <cLine2>, <cLine3>,    ;
               <cLine4>, <cLine5>, <cLine6>, <cLine7>, <cLine8> ) -> NIL

 Arguments

     <cJustType> is a character indicating the type of text justification.
     "L" or "l" will cause the text to be left-justified in the box.
     Centered text is the default.

     <cRetWait> is a character which determines if the function will wait
     for a keypress after displaying the box.  "W" or "w" will cause the
     function to wait for a keypress before returning control to the
     calling routine.  Not waiting is the default

     <cBorType> is a character which determines whether a single or double
     border will be displayed.  "D" or "d" will cause a double border to
     be displayed.  A single border is the default.

     <cBorColor> is a character string denoting the border color.  'N/W' is
     the default if this parameter is not a string.

     <cBoxColor> is a character string denoting the text color.  'W/N' is
     the default if this parameter is not a string.

     <nStartRow> is a number denoting the starting row.  If '99' is passed,
     the box is centered vertically.  If necessary, nStartRow is decreased
     so the entire box can be displayed.

     <nStartCol> is a number denoting the starting column.  If '99' is passed,
     the box is centered horizontally.  If necessary, nStartCol is decreased
     so the entire box can be displayed.

     <cLine1> thru <cLine8> are 1 to 8 character strings to be displayed.
     They are truncated to fit on the screen if necessary.

 Returns

     NIL

 Description

     FT_XBOX() allows the programmer to display a message box on the screen
     without needing to calculate the dimensions of the box.  Only the upper
     left corner needs to be defined.  The function will calculate the lower
     right corner based on the number and length of strings passed.

     A maximum of eight strings can be displayed.  If a string is too long
     to fit on the screen it is truncated.

     The first seven parameters are optional.  The default settings are:
        Lines of text are centered.
        Control is returned to the calling routine immediately.
        A single line border is painted.
        The border is black on white.
        The text is white on black.
        The box is centered both vertically and horizontally.

     WARNING:  Shadowing is achieved by a call to FT_SHADOW(), an assembly
               routine not found in this .PRG.  In order to use XBOX,
               SHADOW.OBJ must also be present somewhere (if you are using
               NANFOR.LIB, then it is).

 Examples

     The following displays a two-line box with default settings:

       FT_XBOX(,,,,,,,'This is a test','of the XBOX() function')

     The following uses all optional parameters and displays a three-line
     box.  The box is left-justified with a double border.  It has a yellow
     on red border and white on blue text.  The function will wait for a
     keypress before returning control to the calling routine.

       FT_XBOX('L','W','D','GR+/R','W/B',5,10,'It is so nice',;
                       'to not have to do the messy chore',;
                       'of calculating the box size!')
