I am in desperate need of any routines written for Microsoft C
(I have version 6.0) which better utilize the video display than
the ones shipped with the compiler...
Specifically, I'd like to do very fast two-dimensional
animation on a SVGA card (I currently have a Paradise) but
their routines just don't cut the mustard!...
Please e-mail any responses...Thanks in advance...

I find hard to imagine VGA etc doing fast animation as the ratio of CPU access speed to Video memory to Normal memory is not good (about 1/10 the speed). Hope you find them, they'll need to be pretty fast and efficient/ BTW what machine are you using? 386 or 486 you are probably ok, but a 286 is just too slow for useful animation. Personally I use an Amiga (ah,ah no flames please ah,ah) ha ha, Cya Murray.
