				you can simply use 
 
locate(row, column) 
 
and
 
 
put "*"
 
 
then decide how you want the user to move it could be a get staement to get the row and column
 
 
I would suggest using locatexy or moving a box around the scrren |

				Mabye you were looking for something like this?
 
 
	  | Turing: | 	 		  var column:  int
put "Choose a column for line ",
     "between 1 and 80 inclusive"
get column
 cls
for row:  1.. 25
    locate (row,column )
    put "*"..
 end for  | 	  
 
 
This will draw a line verticly from top to bottem on the screen. You can add a delay if you want to to make it go slower or faster, up to your choise. |
