A new version of my Hobbes Graphics Library is currently available.  It
supports planar VGA ModeX modes 320x200x256, 320x240, 320x400, and 360x480.
Quick feature list:
virtual/splitscreen panning/scrolling
pixel/line/rectangle/circle/ellipse/triangle primitives
above with any or all of fill/clip/pattern
PCX read/display
simple text
abrash-style bitblts
other tidbits
coming soon:
mouse support
better text
fade in/out


The library is still in 'alpha', and is currently only available from me
directly uuencoded (if it's a problem send me mail and we can work something
out).  Full source and binaries are available.  If you would like to receive
the latest version, REGARDLESS of whether you were on 'the list' or not, send
me mail.  Please state:
1) Preferred AND alternate mailing address
2) If you want source/binaries/both
3) If you want updates as they become available (every few weeks)

Comments/critiques/questions are all very welcome..
