[alt.sources.wanted] XENIX VGA graphics - Help

root@ozdaltx.UUCP (root) (02/09/91)

I'm new to the world og *NIX graphics and need some, probably basic
information.

I'm running SCO xenix, release 2.3 (V5) with a VGA (only) monitor and
would like to be able to present bitmapped graphics on the displays.
Problem is, I can't seem to find out what needs to be done in order
to tell the system I want to light up a pixel at a certain spot in a
given color.  Somewhere, There has to be a list of codes available
to do this, like the termcap entry to do ANSI grphics start & stop.

I have seen SCO's Color Graphics Interface in operation, but can't
afford their price.  Any PD sources available that basicly does the
same thing?

thanks in advance...
Scotty
