A comment for the would-be programmers.  Borland's graphics drivers
can be included in the program code, and the user can (and should)
be saved the hassle of needing the separate .bgi files.  The

but it certainly adds a bit of professionalism to publicly
distributed programs (and many bits of code :-).
