[comp.lang.pascal] Turbo Pascal *.BGI specifications

rowley@umn-cs.cs.umn.edu (Henry A. Rowley) (02/07/90)

I'm interested in the specifications for Turbo Pascal's graphics
drivers (the *.BGI files), and the font files (*.CHR).  Does anyone
know how these work, or if Borland distributes such specifications?
I plan to use this to write a graphics driver for a fairly none 
standard graphics card.

Thanks in advance for any information.

The Turbo User Group (TUG) has arranged to distribute Borlands
BGI Toolkit. It includes a font editor and skeleton BGI driver.
An extended VGA driver is also included. I found that the kit
was too involved to allow me to quickly write the .BGI driver
I wanted.

I do not have their address with me at the moment, but will
e-mail it to you shortly.
