Well, it sounds like things are progressing nicely. A couple of

I've found that most of the M_* messages can be copied from elsewhere.
They tend to be fairly generic in what they do (I could be missing
something though). Most of this code in bitblt, and the mouse driver
we just slightly modified versions of other code.

I guess both of these could be changed easily later?
