Please post a summary to the Net!!!  I've got Megamax C-compiler and
do some C programming, but its all "general" programs.  I don't know
enough about the ST to incorporate windows, mouse, disk access,
graphics, sound, checking for things like the correct screen resolution
etc from within my C-programs.  Cursor control via escape
sequences I know about.  Some good reference books might do the trick.
