And I just figured it out.

Instead of it being "not working", it's "working too well."

I looked at blight's win1.form, and, lo and behold, I saw this.

----
{ win1 Form
   Move(1110,80,480,47)
   Text = ("Blinkenlights")
----


Doh!

Since my screen is 1024x768, of COURSE it's putting the window outside of 
my viewport.
I changed the Move line to Move(10,80,480,47) and, sure enough, it 
appeared at 10,80.

Could someone check all the examples to make sure they have sane location 
values?

Thanks.
