Yes, and I don't know why but for whatever reason I just haven't updated the
webpage for NetRunner in the past couple of years.

You can get beta 19 at http://www.mysticbbs.com/downloads/prealpha/ there
should be nr*.* files for Linux and Windows.

I don't know when I switched over to whatever Mystic is using now but at one
point Mystic's mouse was different than whatever it is doing now.  Beta 19
would be the best bet.  I'll have to get around to updating the website too.

Makes sense.  At the time I don't think 233x233 was even on my radar so I just
used whatever Putty was sending out for compatibility.  

These days my screen IO library supports up to 65535 x 65535 (obviously
untested lol) so I am not opposed to changing the mouse mode it uses to be
more compatible.
