+required during compilation. Also, you must have the DXE2 package (available

+on SimTel.Net, courtesy of Andrew Zabolotny) installed in order to build the

+dynamic modules; if you encounter errors, you can fetch a patched version from

+my web page.

+The demos are not built automagically (see Pitfalls below). To make them, use

+one of the following rules:

+	Static:

+	    gcc -o OUT.exe IN.c -lglut -lglu -lgl

+	Dynamic:

+	    gcc -o OUT.exe -include dmesadxe.h IN.c -ligl -liglu -liglut -ldl

+Usage of the dynamic modules requires three things:

+	- include DMESADXE.H in one of the sources, so references inside

+	  dynamic modules will get resolved (or use `-include' directive)

+	- link against import libraries (libIgl*.a) and LIBDL.A, which will do

+	  the dynamic linkage job for you

+	- put the DXEs somewhere along the library path (LD_LIBRARY_PATH) or

+	  in the current directory

 

 Tested on:

 	CPU:		Intel Pentium w/ MMX @166 MHz

 	Mainboard:	ViA Apollo VP2 w/ 128 MB SDRAM

 	Video card:	Matrox Millenium 2064W w/ 2048 kB WRAM, BIOS v3.0

 The mouse driver is far from complete (lack of positioning, drawing, etc),

 As an addition, stdout and stderr are redirected and dumped upon exit. This
