Well, I've finally finished with that dang library... and Yakicons 1.3 is
finished.  I will sincerely try and upload it to wuarchive.wustl.edu as
soon as possible.  Unfortunately, my site is having sincere ftp problems;
I was able to squeeze off a demo program, boodfly.exe, using the library
including source code.  It is currently uploaded to wuarchive.wustl.edu in
the /pub/MSDOS_UPLOADS directory.  Boodfly.exe is a self-extracting
archive.  Features of YakIcons:

Easy icons loading, drawing, and hiding.
Animicon class which points to the next frame with each draw.
Animap class which provides for a tile-based Ultima-style map with
animated terrain (flowing water, bubbling swamp, smoking volcanos,
whatever).
Actor class which can be put on terrain, automatically drawn when map is
drawn.  Supports a "3d" look where actors behind mountains are partially
hidden, etc.
Event class which can be added to a map, which self-removes when animation
is complete.

factors (facing-actors) which display the correct face icon depending on
direction of travel.
fevents (facing events) which correspond with the event class.  
Actors and factors are spawnable, ie they can draw something else in their
usual place (fighter icons swinging swords, etc).  Effective particularly
with events/fevents.
actor::isinsquare and animap::isinsquare functions which return a pointer
to an identified actor ("is there a <blank> in the square with me?>

Like I said, Boodfly.exe is there already; expect yicons13.exe by Monday
at the latest.  As was said earlier, let's see some great games!  Yicons
uses C++ and was written in Borland C++ version 3.1.  Yicons uses Xlib03,
which has had troubles with some displays; I'm sure this will be fixed
soon.
