    A better question (though, not quite fair) is will BC++ support the
full SDK for version 3.1 of Windows... (Now in Beta Test... [We haven't
installed it quite yet... but it supports fun stuff like light pen
support and char reconization from *hand written* input from the pen..]

    I've used BC++ with code taken directly from work (where we use the
SDK and MSC 5.1), and I've compiled it on Borland C++ 2.0 without a
hitch.. I'm kinda worried about updates though... I know that the nifty
functions above are implemented as a DLL, so all that BC++ would have to
have is the interface library and documentation for the library calls...
(And a license from MicroSoft to redistribute it!)

    --Just wondering...

PS: No, you can't get a copy of it from me...
