I use a library called CXL from
Mike Smedley
P.O. Box 33603
San Antonio, TX 78265-3603
He has Zortech C(++?),TurboC, and Microsoft C with all memory models, and
source code. I think he has other libraries for other compilers too.
It is shareware for only $35.
He has a nice demo program that came with it that I would upload, but since
the binaries area seems to be ever defunct ...
You can get the demo program on GEnie (CXL.arc). The demo I dloaded is
a slightly older version that goes for $25.00 when you register. The new
version, which includes mouse support is $35 ( I don't know if the new
demo has been uploaded to GEnie or not). == The new version adds a lot
of other things too.
Do yourself a big favor and get this library. Even if your time is worth $1
an hour, you will save money, frustration, etc. At $35, this is the best
buy I have made this year.
