My shop has inherited an IBM PC AT with PGA. I embarked on a project which requires plotting points on the screen, and immediately discovered that PGA was apparently forgotten soon after it was released - the C compilers here don't mention it, anyway. What I need is a bit of sample code which will display something using "high-function graphics", i.e. the 640x480 mode. I am working out of the Professional Graphics Controller Technical Reference, which lists a lot of graphics commands that can be sent to buffers at certain addresses in video memory. So far I can't get anything up on the screen, so I guess my understanding of the book is incorrect. I am using Microsoft C (actually Quick C), calling movedata() to poke memory. Any suggestions? (Be explicit - I am pretty new at this!) thanks in advance, John Morton jmorton@newton.berkeley.edu
