I can do it - Oracle tools SQL*forms <= 3.0 for design form and report in 
character mode
- Oracle make this for Linux from version Forms 6 - this version can run
forms 3.0 in character mode, but we can't design it.This exist for SCO 
unix,Solaris,Aix

There are a lot application with this forms - Oracle doesn't support it now
