Already thought about it. Detecting hover-events (MouseEnter and MouseLeave)
isn't standard functionality in Win32Lib (or regular Windows API-programming).
This could be emulated. My idea was a bit larger than just a Hyperlink label: I
was thinking of a button-control that is a lot more advanced than the regular
button: custom painting, images & text, hover-effects, ... A hyperlink could then
just be such a button, with the Hyperlink-style (no border, colored text,
hand-cursor, ...)

It's on my TODO-list, but right now I'm short of time to start a new project. My
free time is (for the moment) spent on these projects:
- Kanarie Template System
- WIPI: <W>in32Lib <I>DE <P>lug<I>ns
- Finding and solving a nasty bug in the polygon-algorithms of Win32Dib

PS: Jiri Babor: I have a question for you. As you know, the polygon-algorithms
of Win32Dib are a modified version of your texture-mapping algorithm. The problem
is: CK has sent me a demo that shows the mapping is not quite linear: the texture
is a bit warped. You can see this best when you use an image with lines that have
an angle of 45degrees (to the left or right). Does your original algorithm also
suffer from this warping? Or could something have gone wrong with modifying it? I
can't seem to find a flaw in the algorithm.
