I think it's in a usable state, and I use multi monitor support all the time. svgalib-1.9 has seen very little testing, so I would not be surprised if there are still many bugs with usage pattern different than mine, but if you try and find (and report) bugs, I am sure they can be resolved. -- Matan Ziv-Av. matan@svgalib.org ------------------------------------------------------------------ Unsubscribe: To: listbot@svgalib.org Body: unsubscribe linux-svgalib
