	It appears to work fine with the MicroEmacs on my extras disk
(V1.1a).  Note that there *IS* a bug in DMouse in that it doesn't allocate
enough 0's for the mouse replacement pointer sprite, but this would only
cause a garbled sprite near the bottom of the screen (instead of dissapearing)
.

	Try moving the mouse a little and then wait for it to go out...
there is another bug in DMouse that doesn't re-timeout the mouse pointer
if Intuition decides to turn it back on (e.g. when you open a new screen
or do other window related stuff).

	All of these have been fixed, and I will distribute a new version
in a week or so (since none of the bugs are fatal, just bothersome).
