Version 3 of the Hobbes ModeX library is out (wow).  It contains a number of
minor changes, and adds mouse routines from Mike Duffy.  I just ftp'd it to
nic.funet.fi, and it will hopefully be in /pub/msdos/games/programming/
hobbes3.zip soon.

Also, to all those who wanted to see my code for Jill-type scrolling in ModeX,
there is a file in the same place called hobbspr2.zip.  You need Hobbes if you
want to compile the source, but you can just try the lame little demo there
if you want.  NOTHING BIG.  It just demonstrates that it is really easy to
scroll around horizontally on an abritrary-size tiled bitmap.
OBVIOUS ADDITIONS:
Double-buffering
working mouse routines
better blts with that xblt code posted a while ago
C++ => C
blah blah blah


I have very close to zero time to work on this stuff.  I would be more than
happy to fix bugs and answer any questions you may have.

enjoy,
