Hi,

Trying to run with djgpp V2 and GRX20 a program that ran correctly with
V1, I noticed two problems:

Something is wrong with the mouse cursor, that shows some pixels in the
wrong color, not always at the same place. This happens even with the
test program that comes with the GRX20 distribution. 

A call to the GRX routine that returns the mouse status clears the
keyboard buffer, even if I pass a flag parameter saying that I don't
want to read the keyboard status. That is: kbhit() always return 0
after a call to the routine. I found a way around, using the
routine to read the keyboard... But this is not the same behavior of
the previous version.

Are these "bugs" or "features" of the new version? I am using the
files obtained from SimTel, and the GRX20 version there is not yet
completely developed, with some functions and documentation missing.
