Looks nice

Getting the same black lines as MsDink when going up, they also appear right at the top of the screen you're leaving when moving left or right.
Screenshot! Going right to left.

I think the screens change a little too slowly... there's a noticable pause which might get annoying after playing for a while.

It's stricter with if statements not being on the same line. Like this:
if (&story == 1) say("blah blah", 1);
//Doesn't work!  Nothing happens.

if (&story == 1)
  say("blah blah", 1);
//Does still work even without the {}

Means I should be more careful with this in future
It could also break a few D-Mods though, I know Redink1 does this in a few places and Dink Mines in this doesn't work at all because of the way the scripts are written.

The mouse pointer not moving with the mouse (unless it's dragged) also makes D-Mod's title screens a bit less fun because you'll not normally see the mouseover effect for the buttons. Doesn't usually matter unless it's something fancy though.

(And v1.08 in truecolour only supports bmp's up to 24 bit, no alpha channel.)
