Yes, Forms4.5 support character mode
[Quoted] You can use Motiff version of Forms designer to create and modify your forms.

These can be run with the help of
character mode version of f45runx

But the migration may be painful
as you may encounter text alignment
problems from GUI to character mode

I'm not sure of Forms5.0
