Hi there.

Iīve been using LIBGRX 1.03m1 for developing a really stupid and simple application
that works on my 586 with s3 trio64 graphics card.
When switching to DJGPP v2.0b3 with LIBGRX2.0 and adapting the incompatible parts of
the program (changing GrTextOption->txo_bgcolor to GrTextOption->txo_bgcolor.v, 
kicking out font magnification) it compiled.
It runs (using 640x480x256, RGB-Color-Mode), but produces two errors:
 1. Mouse cursor is most red with some random Pixels in the lower right.
    Code fragment:
        if (!MouseDetect()) return 3;
        MouseEventMode(1);
        MouseInit();
        MouseSetSpeed(1);
        MouseWarp(10,10);
        MouseDisplayCursor();
 2. In text output containing periods '.' those are not written and the length is interpreted
     wrong
     Code Fragment:
        static GrFont *font;          
        static GrTextOption *textset;
      [snip]
        textset=(GrTextOption *) calloc(sizeof(textset));
        font=GrLoadFont(cour14b.fnt);
        textset->txo_font = font;
        textset->txo_bgcolor.v = WHITE;
        textset->txo_fgcolor.v = BLUE;
      [snip]
       GrDrawString("0.1", 4, 8,133, textset);
       GrDrawString("0",    1, 8,233, textset);
      [end of code]
 
Iīve no clue whatīs the cause of this, so: please help (preferably E-Mail)
Yes, I know itīs beta software, so maybe look at this as a bug report.
                   
                                                                                                    Thanks in advance
