This is interesting news because I've recently reconnected with Gabriel 
Boehme to polish off that port of your Mines game that he and I had 
started over a year ago.  It really kicks butt and my fiancee loves it 
but real-life issues that developed with both of us stopped the project 
before near-completion.  My next step was to update using the current 
version of Win32Lib, finish up the program, and make a help file.

Unfortunately, I'm still getting sidetracked with 'real-life' issues and 
other unrelated projects but I appreciate the "heads-up".
