Late breaking news:

1. C Power BBS got hit by lightning and lost part of the graphics library, but
   I will still post it all to this list soon.

2. A new, high speed, and *documented* C Power graphics library is now available
   from David Kessner.  For free, you can get this, and the reviews so far
   indicate it is a very nice product.  Mail 2 diskettes and a Self Addressed
   return diskette mailer to:
	David Kessner
	1135 Fairfax
	Denver, CO 80220
	(303) 377-1801
   All I can say for David is I hope he has two drives and one of the FAST
   HACK'EM auto copy modules.  His library is callable from C Power but
   written in assembler for speed, and appears to include more powerful
   capabilities than the one on the BBS.  Send him 3 diskettes instead of
   2 and he will also send you a copy of Mark Rinfret's C Power assembler
   which generates C Power linkable object modules and is written in C.
   It wouldn't be a bad idea to log on the C Power BBS and send David a short
   note letting him know you will be sending him diskettes.
   Note that this library is for C Power 64.  No guarantees that it will
   work under C Power 128, and in all likelyhood it won't because of different
   memory management for the VIC-II chip in the 128.

3. Does anyone who has C Power 128 care to comment on whether the "-p" option
   of the compiler (i.e. tell compiler not to ask for disk swaps) works 
   properly?  There is a rumor on the BBS that it doesn't.  If it doesn't,
   what version do you have?  If it does, also what version do you have?  I'm
   planning to buy it real soon, but probably should hold off if this option
   doesn't work, cause answering those swap messages is no fun.

Sincerely,
