Various AUTORUN screens, just for fun.

[Wierd Wierd]

In the interests of compatibility testing (torturing
poor ROS), (and 
because I am easily amused) I made some screen grabs
of ROS running various 
AUTORUN programs.   Seems our GDI subsystem has some
problems with 
transparency still-- Nomad Soul's autoplay should have
a transparent 
background...

You can find the screenshots here:

Some of them were taken before I loaded up the VMware
SVGA driver, so bear 
with me here.

We actually don't support it at all. There are two ways how to achieve 
transparent Windows. First one is calling SetWindowRgn that sets the 
shape of the window. This is realtivly easy to implement for us. The 
second way is using WS_EX_TRANSPARENT window style (supported on W2K+), 
but looking at the screenshor it seems that the game was introduced 
before the W2K release, so the SetWindowRgn hypothesis seems more likely 
to be the cause.
