Ah, the old: "Bitch and you shall receive" theory works again!

Well, really didn't 'bitch' about not having a mouse, just made a lot of innuendos about it lately. I haven't made inuendos in a long time. I use garlic and oregano in mine. What do you make your inuendos with Myst? BTW - Hey Clippy, I've got your joystick right here!

OK, kidding aside, I think this is great and I can't wait to see release #8.

One difference I noticed between DOS and NTVDM was mouse placement. Say you wanted to move the mouse to somewhere on the screen, no problem in DOS, you just use value 4, make the CALL, and the mouse cursor gets moved. In NTVDM, you have to click or begin to move the mouse, before the results of the CALL move are displayed on the screen. Weird. I think I programmed something within the last couple of months that circumvented that but I can't recall. I abandoned the idea of the intelli-mouse a few years ago because most users are used to having what they do move the mouse and not the mouse having a mind of its own.... or pretty much my mind, which is really to small to power a mouse, anyway.

G-L-E-E that spells glee
Q-B-Sixty-Four baby

PS And remember, you can't spell inuendos without DOS.
