Ok, I'll check it out. What I was really trying to do was start a
discussion thread on controler wrappers and methods.

See, I just recently finished a really cool controler wrapper system
that makes it so easy to add new controler layouts. Curosity got the
best of me, and I just wanted to find out how everyone else handled
controler management issues. I'll eventually dump my method onto the
newsgroups, but I want to finish up a few rough edges of code before I
do that.

*Looks at some of George's controler code*

Very nice implementation! I like your logical structure and union system
- it suports every controler without adding any code overhead. (Possibly
even saving some)

I'll go ahead and tell how my system works. It consists of 3
structures...
