The third edition of DOS/svgalib is ready and can be had at:
http://wwwbacc.ift.ulaval.ca/~moisemih/svgalib.zip
I would like to thank Ingo Stierand for volunteering the mouse driver as well as Bill Curie for his keyboard library which was very helpful.
What's new in the third edition:
- Keyboard and mouse drivers.
- Source code almost entirely re-ported from Linux svgalib 1.2.10.
- Fixed some bugs so it should be safer.
The distribution policy is not the GNU copyleft, but rather people can distribute it freely, as long as no money exchanges hands. I might change it, but so far no-one has written to me saying that they want anything else.
