Subject:	BCC2GRX V1.2 AVAILABLE

Hi everyone,

the BCC2GRX v1.2 is ready.

   The BCC2GRX was created to allow users of DJGPP/LIBGRX to compile
   graphics programs written for Borland's graphics interface. C code
   can be directly compiled and linked with BCC2GRX. Pascal code has
   to be converted by P2C.

Major changes from v1.1 to v1.2 are :

  - more flexible graphics mode selection (set_BGI_mode[_whc]())
  - GRX fonts usable
  - supports 32768+ color modes
  - floodfill() doesn't uses second context in simple cases (much faster),
    leaves viewport if no clipping required
  - enhanced error checking
  - several bug fixes

bccgrx12.zip is available on omnigate and art.e-technik.uni-kiel.de
(134.245.50.64, not within local working hours, please!). You'll also need
LIBGRX 1.03 (not ready yet) or take the libgrx.a from bccgrx11.zip or
grxdrvb1.zip.

For Turbo-Pascal support, you should get the hsp2c120.zip too.

I want to thank everyone who send me comments, bug descriptions
and bug fixes. Special thanks to Csaba and Wonkoo for their
valueable help.

Hartmut
