Actually most all of TheBOB programs I posted here I converted over for Bob, to QB64 mouse routines, and packaged the needed graphics files in the accompanying zips, so there is no need for the creation routines. The original ones posted at The QBasic Forum almost all use CALL ABSOLUTE for the mouse routines, which do not work in QB64. Also, as you stated, those files required you run a program to create the needed graphics files.
