Yes, it's long time since I've updated my page (it has been VERY
 busy lately). I'm working on a similar project now (which I'll put on
my page soon, promised!) that has as primary goal to make directx
programming easy & in reach of people who don't have an
expensive/heavy compiler live VC5. It can be compiled completely with
lcc win32 (which is for windows what DJGPP is for DOS, a pitty it
doesn't do C++).
