[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Help with graphic displays

jjoshua@topaz.rutgers.edu (Jon Joshua) (05/01/89)

I need some help concerning displaying graphics on a PC.

Does anyone have some source that could demonstrate how a picture file
can be displayed on a PC screen, regardless of adapter type?  I want
to be able to create a picture file, probably .IFF or .GIF, and be
able to display it on a machine with an unknown graphics board.

I guess that it would also be helpful if you could give me some info
on .GIF or .IFF files and how different adapters like to see the data
while we're at it.


Thanks a few mil,
JOn.
