I've noticed there's quite a few undocumented features on the wiki, so I've started adding descriptions for things that I've tested. For example, I've recently added details about dsb_text_size() and dsb_mouse_state().
However, there are many functions which I don't fully understand, so I can't document them accurately. I'm happy to update the wiki on an ad-hoc basis, if I can get some details on these undocumented features. If you're OK with that Sophia?
Can I start by asking what does dsb_mouse_override() do?

Re: Undocumented features / functions
Thanks, that would be very helpful!
You pass dsb_mouse_override a bitmap and DSB will then use that bitmap as the mouse pointer, until you pass it a nil or false or some other bitmap. This is useful if you've got a custom GUI where you want to have more mouse pointer states than just the mouse pointer and the mouse hand.

Great, thanks.
