Bill, I have mousetext working on a bitstream I've been working on 
for the IIGS. Its pretty easy to do (I'm using Xilinx ISE 11.1).  I 
made up a ".coe" file (its a text representation of a character ROM 
dump, comma separated with a small header).  If you want to use it 
let me know and I'll get it to you.  Incidentally, it is the 
"running man" mousetext not the normal ROM 01 GS mousetext since I 
couldn't find the right ROM dump.

Or...
If you can wait (maybe quite a while) I'll try to remove the GS 
specifics from the bitstream and test it on a //e.  It still doesn't 
have double hires.  I'm working on that.
