DR> myself with just some help from you guys. I would like to create an item

BD> the  center as the screen, you could get immensely creative. I don't
BD> know, though, if the whole thing can be done, code-wise, without
BD> whacking the game off, but  I bet it's possible. Give it a whirl!
If anyone gets this to work, could I have a patch to do this? Never use
nightvision much anyways, just to read the messages the put in there that you
need nightvision for.
