The arwen.ew I ship has "include dib256.ew" commented out because edita does not
use it. If anything, the dib256.ew which I (pointlessly) distribute [*] actually
contains some uncommented code over the official that I had a play with, iirc.
Afaik, the copyDib routine has been left exactly how I found it.
Mike has posted a new version of arwen with improved/working dibs. I have yet to
try this out/merge it into something edita can use.
[*] There is nothing to stop anyone, as and when needed, coding:

include arwen.ew
include dib256.ew

BTB,
Are you saying that "dcole.zip" does not work? If so can you send me some
details, eg screen dumps, of what you get, and maybe, edited, what you want?

If you do not want a pattern, then a bitmap offers nothing over FillRect, so no,
I would say that is utterly false. What exactly do you mean by "backlground text"
anyway? Do you mean background? Do you mean text? Or do you mean something
inbetween?

Confused,
Pete

PS It is called arwen, not arwin (maybe you can ask Mike why, maybe it says
somethere in the docs, I forget).
