[comp.sys.ibm.pc] video control

c2h5oh@ssyx.ucsc.edu (Evan A.C. Hunt) (01/29/88)

	I'm working on writing a library for turbo c that will
give the same kind of screen control that turbo pascal has--
screen modes and attributes, cursor movement, windows, etc.
I've already written one that uses ansi.sys and found it 
unsatisfactory (no windows, among other problems), and this
one I want to write using interrupt 0x10.  The problem is that
the technical reference isn't as clear as it could be about
this.
	So: could any of you net people send me any information
you have on the video interrupt?  Any help is appreciated.  If 
it seems appropriate, I'll summarize and post.

	Thanks in advance.

Can someone point me to a source of information on the above four graphics
adapters.  The IBM technical ref covers the CGA somewhat.  Specifically I am
looking for information on the graphics modes of these beasties.
