We know how to put a VGA into graphics mode with little effort. What
we would like to avoid is writing all those nice little graphics
routines that do things like:
draw points
draw lines
draw boxes
draw circles
get/set colour values
text display (in graphics mode)
read current display contents
etc, etc, etc....
Has anyone tackled this?
