The easy way is to just delete the line in the _link file, because the
library is not needed at all ;-) I don't have it either.

For the sake of application compatibility they should however know the
new definitions, even if they can't use them for high colour. Problem
is that WMAN is not finished, looks like there need to be some changes
in GD2 before it can be fully implemented.

The fast memory version can easily live next to the others within the
source tree. Then it's just a matter of changing the make_bas program
for the platform to include the different module.

I can send you the mail with the stuff he got from me if you want.

Right.

BTW: Back from holidays and starting answering mails. Next exam in
October has however priority over all QL related work.
