Hi all,
	The latest version of The Window System (TWS) is now available on
simtel.net (v2tk dir as mttws121.zip).
	TWS is a C++ class library and C graphics library to create
applications with movable and sizable windows. Some of its best
features are the small size and support for all colour depths.

New to this version:
	Compression - I have added routines to compress blocks of memory and
decompress them. These routines get ratios that approach (and
sometimes pass) those of common compressors including pkzip.

	Resource files - These are files that contain many resources and a
directory that allows them to be retrieved. These support the
resources being compressed and will decompress the blocks of memory
automatically when retrieving them.

	Sound - support for digital sample playing on SB compatibles (SB2.0,
SBPRO, and SB16) is new to this version.

	Improved graphics - several new graphics routines have been added to
bring the library up to standard. The most important are circles,
filled circles and filled polygons.

If you have any questions regarding TWS then fell free to write.

Malcolm
