	The Window System
	================

	I have just finished uploading a zip file containing my windowing
system for DJGPP v2.0 to x2ftp.oulu.fi. This is a complete event based
windowing class library for overlapping sizable windows. It has
several types of controls (buttons, checkboxes, radio buttons, static
text, single line edit text) and a few standard dialog boxes for
messages (selectable buttons) and file operations. It also has a
simple but effective hypertext help system as well as menus.
	Best of all this is a compact library that is completely standalone.
All that is required to build an application with it is the standard C
library.
	One of the more peculiar features is the transparent support for 8bit,
15bit and 24bit colour modes. True colour support is maintained in any
colour depth with dithering in the 8bit mode (fast). The SVGA access
is done through the standard VESA 1.2 interface.

	The library is Shareware, but there is no charge for those developing
free applications with it. Source code is not distributed but is
available to registered users.

Requirements:
	VESA compatible SVGA card.
	Preferably a 486 processor.
	DJGPP v2.0

	The zip file should be in the x2ftp archive in the next few days.
That is:
    ftp://x2ftp.oulu.fi/pub/msdos/programming/djgpp2/tws100.zip
