Regarding the crashing MGDEMO program:

1. It doesn't crash on my home system which has a Video Seven graphics card,
   but does on my work machine which has a Diamond Speedstar.
2. There appears to be a major rewrite of the graphics code since version
   2.

I'm going to check the graphics code carefully, possibly recompiling to use
VID. Somewhere in that code they must be doing some non-portable coding.

I'm still underwhelmed.
